2. Insert the net's right attachment in the rearmost hole in the mounting bracket (see illustration) and
push it forward into the smaller hole in the bracket to secure it in place.
3. Pull out the spring-loaded attachment on the left side of the net and insert it in the bracket on the left
side of the vehicle in the same way.
