ok, I made a mistake...under the advice of a sales person at Smith's Cyclery of La Crosse, WI, I bought a Bones 2...I have an 07 Base Mini Cooper. I got my Bones 2 and needed this part to attach it. This part does what it is supposed to, but the Bones 2 IS NOT for the Mini. It is a tripod. On cornering, there is not enough support for this rack to hold bikes firmly in place due to one upper arm, and two lower. Oh well. The hatch huggers do their job, although a pain to install, you have to pull them out of their ratchet clamps as they are too thick to fit in the hole of the hatch/to/roof opening. too much tube, not enough hole. I wish I had that problem.
 Excellent design fits Lexus RX313 and Mitsubishi Eclipse October 1, 2009

Aim was to transport my bike 15 miles to the trail using Lexus RX330 or Mitsubishi Eclipse. A hitch and bike holder was an expensive option, while a roof rack was difficult for me to load the bike and not practical. Out of all bike trunk racks that I was able to review, only Saris Bones 805 2-Bike Trunk Mount Rack would fit my SUV and Eclipse using Hatch Huggers. Plus it's elegant design and recycled material. Delivery was prompt as usual from Amazon.com. Installed product in 15 minutes alone after reviewing the product video on web site as suggested by reviewer. The rack and Hatch Huggers proved to be sturdy and stable. I am very happy with the outcome and highly recommend it.
