You Might Want To Keep Shopping
The hand tightening nuts were all threaded incorrectly and will not thread onto the carriage bolts supplied. (They're suppose to be 8mm 1.25 to match the bolt, but they are not) Upon test fitting with other nuts in place of the hand tightening ones, I discovered these will not work with aero type load bars- Thule, Rocky Mounts, Yakima- as the shape of the mounting surface is a poor match and the carriage bolts are too short. The mounting surfaces of these are painted steel offering no protection to the load bars or provide any grip to keep them from rotating. Additionally, as others have mentioned, the instructions are rubbish.<br /><br />If you have round or square load bars, don't mind the eventual damage these may cause or the potential for them moving when loaded, want to purchase a tap and tap handle to rethread the hand tightening nuts, along with possibly longer bolts, and assemble things from a vague and poor quality image, these may be just the thing for you.
