Question Trunk room net retrofit

Has anyone done this?

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...45&hg=51&fg=95

I was under the assumption (based on my dealers comment) that the car would come prepared for this. So it would have the hooks in the top liner and I would just buy the cover with the net. In Europe the car has these hooks regardless if you have the net or not. Well apparently it did not have those.

My dealer has never done this before. Quoted $1250 Canadian for parts and $300 for labor. I am a little concerned since they need to disassemble most of the top interior and cut the top liner. Can they reassemble everything so that it still is rattle free? Would the quality be the same as if ordered from the factory?

thanks, p

I looked into this a while ago (for taking my 3 dogs in the car on the weekends).... the dealer quoted me a rediculous price and even said it out loud that they were not confident to doing it right. There are also other small bits and pieces that they might have to order.. but could not be sure what they are exactly.

I later did some research and confirmed that they would have to take off the top liner and cut the whole.... etc.

I gave up at the end... my dogs are pretty well behave when they are in the car anyway.

That is way too much money for that kind of mod IMO.
