I just picked up a OEM roof rack and cant for the life of me figure out how to install it. It doesn't seem like the metal things inside the rack will reach to the factory holes. I have just discovered that i need plastic clips to complete the install. does anyone know where to get them?

It's tricky, at least the first time. You may have to adjust the depth of the locking mechanism that latches on to each of the black clips. When you close the lids each should give some but not too much resistance as each presses its base into a rubber block.

Hopefully you got the correct key with the racks too?

Despite being taller than average, I find standing on a short stool helps a lot in getting these things aligned, etc.
