>>>The tiger is full of simple jobs that end up being a real hassle due to

Owain,
I don't have an answer to your question as I installed my gaiters with the
rack removed. However, (and I don't want to add to the difficulty) but I
found the zip ties that are often provided to do a poor job of preventing
leaks. When I brought my frustrations to the list years ago I found I was
in the minority, but for me it was a problem. In the end I found that
certain hose clamps from Europeans cars (Volvo Turbo's, BMW's and I recall
Audi's) had the right circumference and more importantly were narrow enough
to properly fit the larger diameter of the gaiters. These clamps also
angled up at the edges to prevent cutting as a standard, straight edged
clamp might do.
So, while you are dealing with the difficulty, you might want to go the
extra step and have a better chance of preventing a leak, because 'simple
jobs DO end up being a real hassle.'
