Bending
Bend your metal pieces (I used the metal port covers from an old PC) so that they're hooked with an internal diameter about the same as the size of your bike rack.
Placement
Place your clips no further apart than your bike rack can support, and zip tie them to the bag. I used the smallest zip ties I could find, and doubled them for extra strength.
And You're Done!
