Default Looks nice...

I have a quick question. I have a Thule rack from my GTi that I'm going to be using on my new A4. I know I need new footings. Not sure how similar the Yakima mounting is to the Thule, but are there any indications to where to mount? I know it sounds stupid. On the GTi, there where little arrows pointing to where the "feet" went.

The Q-Clips hook into the door by the weather stripping. Very solid rack.

A4 has arrows also. You just need new Clips i think. No new feet.
