My Ralliart did not come with any trunk accessories, no net no trays no nothing....it's very inconvenient when I go grocery shopping and stuff. My buddies' VWs have grocery hooks in their trunks and I really wanted something similiar....so I searched and searched and I finally found something that would work with our trunks.
I knew I could use these conveniently placed holes....

Found these from IKEA for $1.99:

These did not come with mounting hardware, you need to find 2 pairs of small nuts and bolts....stick the bolt with the mounting part of the knob through the hole...

Now reach through the bottom opening with 2 fingers holding the nuts....this part is really hard and since you'll be bent over in an awkward position holding a tiny nut with 2 fingers trying to fasten it on the tip of the bolt....just be patient and ask another person to hold the mounting cylinder in place for ya...
