Today on our 2011 Cadillac CTS, we'll be test fitting the Yakima Quickback 2 trunk mounted
bike rack part number Y02621. With our bike rack preassembled, we will first need to pop
the trunk with the trunk pop, we can now simply set the bike rack on top of the deck led.
We'll position the rubber bumpers so that the flat part is what makes contact with the
deck led itself. A quick tech tip, before installing the bike rack make sure that the
deck led is clean and maybe even waxed as this will help to protect the finish of the
vehicle while the bike rack is installed. With the bike rack on the deck led, we'll
simply attach the top cables to the lip of the deck led between the rear window and the
deck led itself with the top tube nylon straps hooked into the deck led, this will hold the
bike rack into place. We'll now go ahead and take the lower straps and attach them to the
deck led. You will notice that the strap has two tabs.
One with saying bottom and the other saying side. We'll use the bottom hook to strap to
the lower portion of the deck led and the side hook will strap to the deck led near
the tail light. You may need to open the deck led slightly to get the hooks in around. With
all the hooks and their correct location, we'll simply the tighten the nylon straps
ensuring that the bike rack positions itself up against the license plate
and the deck led.
