Okay, silly question: Where do I anchor the cargo net in my hatchback coupe? The owner's manual doesn't say much, and since I've never seen one installed, I'm unsure of the orientation/placement of the darn thing. Any pics?

About 6 or 8 inches from the rear of the compartment. On the sides, both driver and passenger there are 2 sided plastic hooks. their under the compartment lights. hope this helps.

There are four bolts in the back hatch area - two on the sides and two hanging down from the underside of the corners of the fender (you can feel around and find them). Four plastic ***** with "ears" spin onto the bolts. On my coupe two of the ***** were put on at the factory, and two were in the pouch that contained the net and cargo shade. You then simply loop the net around the ears of the four ***** - it's a pretty tight stretch. If I recall correctly the net gives you a placement for one of the loops, and then you place the others accordingly.
