Front wheel resets n the front rack crossbar and it all lashes down with tie downs. Rock solid and super simple. The blocks are no bigger than 4" X 4 " X 8"? I'll see if I can get a good pic of them on the rack for you today. There are three basic functions of them and then the straps do the rest:

1) to cup the axle and hold the bug from sliding for/aft
2) to lift the back axle so the wheels clear the car roof
3) to slide the whole buggy back 1.5" so the front tire rests on the front crossbar, not the roof.

We need some pics of your system to see what you came up with. I have pics of Angus's roofrack system but haven't gone to the trouble to put something together yet.
