I believe the two platic tabs holding the top of the trim around the trunk get replaced with ones that have a hooks on it.

They look like two door *****, like mentioned above, and replace two of the plastic screws holding the trim. You hang the net from these on top, bottom of the net hangs loose. That's how it is on the SC.

Does anyone have a picture of where the net is installed on a GS? How about a pic of the hangers that you used to hang the net.

It's been so long, I totally forgot that I had the net. Now I have find the damn thing

I actually just bought this last week. Paid around $20 but I did get all the right parts and instructions too!

Like they mentioned above, the new hook replaces an existing "button". You only have to pull out the edge of the trunk liner, then remove a small plastic "nut" under the liner and replace with a new one.

My kit came with small studs so that one end threaded into your new nut behind the liner and holds the liner down. Then, the new plastic cargo net hooks threaded onto the other half of the stud.

Darn it, my net didn't come with a hook like that. It came with a floormat holder

But thanks for the pics. Very much appreciated.

josh,

When you speak with the sales rep about them, could you ask them how much they would cost if someone needed to buy them? I think I'll have to buy them.
