generic minivan cargo net I bought at Canadian Tire (sort of a wal-mart for car stuff) - a loop at each corner, just the right width.

It comes with 4 plastic ***** to mount the net - I only needed two.

I removed the two screws in the front lower corners of the triangular plastic window trim in the hatch area. Using two of the long screws that came with the net I screwed in the two plastic ***** for upper mounting points.

I then unscrewed the metal bar across the front of the carpet area. I carefully folded the net in half, careful not to distort its shape by tugging, and found the centre. I laid the centre across the ridge in the carpet and screwed the bar back in place.

Then I just had to hook two loops on eack side onto the *****.

This not only makes a neat looking cargo net but provides a pocket between the net halves for carrying loose papers. Ever been driving down the road with a few sheets of paper on the passenger seat? Ever have those papers blow around? Stick em in the net pocket and you're fine.

NO drilling, NO cutting, fully reversible, and cost me about $4 for the net.
