CHROME REAR CARRIER

[ClassicVW_imp]

Do you install one side at a time?

You remove the side bolts that need to be removed. Then you place the rack where it belongs and just install the two front bolts one side at a time, and then do the two rear. Keep everything loose until all the bolts are in place, then tighten everything.
The hardest part will be to get the bolts to start grabbing the nuts on the inside of the frame. If you have a rubber mat, a piece of carpet, or even cardboard that you can position under the bike, all the better. You WILL drop a nut or two during the install, and it's better that you have a softish floor surface so they don't bounce and roll far away. And don't do the install at dusk or you'll need a flashlight to find the lost nuts. DAMHIK.

Don't sweat it and wait for it to arrive. You'll see what needs to be done.
