My guess is that Yakima has changed or udated their products. Give a few days I'll put something together. Unfortunately I just spent a week in the hospital for a 8mm Kidney stone.

The bike mount is self made using the yakima landing pad 6 mounts, control tower and round bar.
I drilled, mounted and sealed them to the cover. The cover is rated at 500 pounds and easily carries two full size bikes or my kids bikes. The cover will not lift with the full size bikes on board but will lift with the kids bike on the racks. When we take all four, we just throw the kids bikes into the bed. My hope is the rear hitch on the R-pod is strong enough for the kids bikes.

Sir, quick question for you:  where did you get the bike mount?  I like how it keeps your bed open for gear.
