The net is packaged with two knobs to be mounted on either side. However, I felt that if they are mounted with the accompanying screws it would not be addeqaute strength. So, I purchased two screws, nuts and washers to make a better mount. I chose a location just in front of the Cargo cover.

The net needs to be close to the Cargo cover so that the screws holding the side panels can provide a resistant force for the net. Otherwise the panel just just pull out. Also, this areas is also close to the rear seat belt mechanism so be sure there is adequate clearance for the seat belt to move. Make sure there can be no chafing of the seat belt otherwise the strength of the seat belt could be compromised.
