Rubber Dealies on Rear Sill

Hey all,

I was detailing my interior today, and noticed two rubber dealies on the rear sill...(an inch or so in front of the rear window)

Anyone know what these are for?

Thanks!

I don't know anything about dealies, but there is a round rubber topped thingamajig on each side. You can hook the loop of a triangular cargo net on it.

I think that they hold down the cargo cover, when the boot door is closed.

I want to note your fabulous use of the term "dealies." There are many dealies on a MINI but few have the class to refer to them as such. Bravo!!!

In my part of the woods it is "doohickeys." Never heard of the kicky type.
