I drilled through. 3/8s inch bolt with fender washers on top and bottom. It seems to work real well!

U could also extend it so it hung over a little and bolt on each side of the crossmembers. This works fine tho

I just open the doors and stand there. U could put a henge on the side so it opened. That's simple!

I made my own mounts lemme see if I can dig up a pic real quick... couldn't find any but I took some plate steel and made a bracket for the bottom and then a piece for the top real simple 2 flat pieces then a bolt that goes from the bottom up and is counter sunk so it just sandwiches the factory tracks... I got the idea from the little slidable rope tie down things.
EDIT GOT PICS :p
