Here's the bike rack I design when I first got my Xterra! Enjoy!

here's what you need you can buy most of these parts from Ebay, REI , SportChalet or where ever they sell THule and Yakima Products. the most important part is the mm head less bolt. which is very hard to find.. if you have True Value hardware store around your area that's where i bought mine. look at the pictures i have posted so it will give you and idea on how i put these rack together.

Yakima blockhead $9.99 each from ebay
Yakima 4H Mounts $3.00 on sale from REI
Thule cross bars $39.99 a pair on sale from REI
Bolts and Knobs Approx. $10

Very nice. Can you do a pic of the parts identifing them. Also where did you get the bolts that go in the track?

The inside rack is nice. I had something rigged up inside when I first purchased the X and then I saw how rough and tough the Thule roof rack with load bars looked. It's much easier to throw the whole bike up top on the roof and no need to disconnect the front tire.
Get to destination and ride. Much less set up.
