Pic request: Side Trunk Net

Hey, I was hoping someone could take a picture of the net that is fitted to the inside of the trunk (passenger side).

My car didn't come with it for some reason, and I'm considering trying to retrofit one, maybe on both sides. I've located the part on RealOEM, but I'm unsure of exactly how it's fastened to the trunk liner.

So anyway, if anyone can provide a pic, preferably one that focuses on the net's attachment points, I'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

Here you go pal,

The quality is not that great since I used my iPhone to take the pictures, but it shows how it is attached. In short, it's a slim metal bar in the shape of a "U" that attaches at the bottom to plastic clips, and on the sides as illustrated by the pictures:

Okay, so I see two plastic sort of rivets that probably just pop in to anchor the two upper corners - and then does the frame itself also have two little plastic tabs that pop into the liner along the bottom?

Thanks again, guys.

You can get oem interior clips, fasterners and screws of all types at any auto accessory store. So you should be able to attach it in several different ways. The trunk and fender liner is easy to drill, and the furry material hides the hole well.

Correct. The clips at the bottom keep the metal U-shaped rod in place.
