I don't see where to attach the triangular "side" pieces (the corner with the loop) in my Clubman so I've backed out. I think some Clubmans have a hook on the ceiling, but that feature may be country-specific or optional. If anyone can explain it I'd appreciate it.
Thanks for the picture ImThaBean. I just found the same picture at http://www.lacar.com/?p=4583 and the vehicle is a 2010 Mini Cooper R56. My 2009 Clubman R55 does not have those upper posts for the net's loop to attach to, so the triangular nets appear to be an R56-only item. My R55 does have a fold-out grocery bag hook on the right side but none on the left side and it would be too low for the triangular net anyway.
Also I run my Clubman with the false floor (an R55-only feature I believe) in place which puts the cargo area level with the back seats when the seats are folded down. The false floor would cover the 4 lower anchor points shown in the picture, 2 of which are for LATCH. The Clubman does have 4 fold-out chrome metal anchor points just above the false floor, but they would be a few inches higher than the ones below the false floor which might cause the nets to run loose, assuming I could even anchor the top somehow.
So the triangular nets will not fit my Clubman and I am no longer interested in purchasing any of these nets.
Eagle-co94's rectangular net does appear to be for the Clubman R55 only. It looks exactly like the one I use that came with my Clubman. When I look at diagrams and photos of R53 and R56 nets, they appear to be more square and have longer straps in the corners.
In summary, the rectangular net appears to be for the R55, the triangular nets appear to be for the R56, and it is unknown if any of the nets would work in an R53. I hopes this helps the prospective buyer.

Thanks for the info Steve! I have a false floor on my R53 and was planning on mounting the net vertical to create a boot area for smaller loads. If anyone is interested in splitting the nets up. Let it be known.
I have been looking for information on whether or not these came standard with all Mini Coopers or if it was an accessory at purchase, but so far, I've come up with conflicting answers. I have heard that they did in fact come standard, as your post suggests, but one of my MA's said it was an optional accessory and that I could purchase it if I wanted. Another MA however, at the same dealership, didn't answer my question, but told me she'd see if they had any lying around or she'd get one in and send it to me. So, do you have any idea what the real answer is?
P.S. sorry, I'm asking the same question in all the marketplace threads these are for sale in. Thanks!
