They come screwed in... Ill go and take a picture right now ... be back in a few....

K back.. here ya go:
There are two of these one on each side next to the lifts.... for a total of 5 mounting points for the shade cover:
2 bolts as pictured here (on front side of the rear hatch closer to driver/passenger)
2 U notches on left and right rear corners of the hatch
1 rear latch (yep the same one used to latch the hatch)

arrgg I should have taken a wider angled picture... sorry but I hope you get the point...

I think the two forward hooks should have come with the cargo shade. They have to be installed before you can mount the cargo shade, IIRC.

Go back to your dealer and they should be getting them to you at no cost. They should have been installed from the factory. Sounds like someone was missing some, and may have taken them out of your car.
