Very good video and nice camera work. I did not read all the posts but want to make one minor comment. I have the same bike rack but I noted you did not install the safety machine screws near the ends of the crossbars to prevent the tire holders from sliding off when no bike is installed. Also in my instruction those screw holes should be facing down. In your video they are facing up. Again a very minor point and I think you did a great job on the video... thanks.

Nice video - very straightforward and complete. Suggestion: When you slide the wheel trays on, if you put the front one on first on the right, put the rear one on first on the left. That way, the bikes are staggered. As you did it in the video, the trays on the back (closest to the car) force the ones on the front (nearest to you) closer together.
