Remove panelling gently and work from inner side.
Closer inspection reveals 7 dimples, these are were the net fits into.
Drill these out from the rear with a suitably sized drill bit. (I forget the size).
Make sure front holes are neat.
From front of panelling locate net lugs through drilled holes.
Push lugs all the way through so that net fitting is flush with panelling
 

Nuts thread themselves onto plastic lugs of net.

Put all 7 nuts on a few turns to start threading.
Slowly tighten each nut working along all 7 progressively, do not over tighten as this will strip the tread from the lug.
Drop the rear glass and lift the weather seal from the top of the rear door so that panelling can be located on black U clips, then press panelling to door frame.
Re-seat weather seal carefully, and raise glass to make sure that it is fitted correctly.
Refit bolt at latch side of door
Refit bolt at hinge side of door
All fitted.
