Demon Tweeks do this pocket http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=MSPORT&pcode=TOTMP and spare clips are available http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=MSPORT&pcode=TOTMPCLIP
I don't know if the clips are the same but they might work.

You know the two little 'recesses' between the rear wheel arches & the tail-lights, where you have the little cubby-holes. This net is supposed to go on the outside of those to give you a couple more inches of storage.
I've been told it's only applicable to those with the extended storage pack, but they can't tell me why it will/won't fit in mine. It could simply be that the trim that covers the wheel arches is different and has brackets/clips pre-mounted for these nets, but I won't know until I see them.
Lateral trunk floor trim panel - BMW parts catalog
Part #3 is available in left & right sides, but the extended storage 'side panel' (part #1) is only different for the left hand side trim - so if the nets don't fit on the left, then I simply have to buy the LHS trim.
Is the front net extended storage?
If so, I can take some pics of my boot side partition areas. I think they look the same as my friends without extended storage in the front...
They will just self-tap in again I'd assume. I want the boot floor net, but it's a bit steep at £70 ish!

Keep us up to speed on that one mmm-five...!! 
@Whippy,
I'd double check the boot floor net pricing, I've put one in my car and it only fits in the stepped down bit of boot on the //M. I wonder if it's different for the non boot mounted battery 3.0i's..?
In fact, the one I bought caused myself and the chap in the parts department great amusement at it's lack of size. He even said to me several times I didn't have to buy it if I didn't want it..!! That said, it does expand a bit...

Part number is B51.47.2.263.062.
I have just ordered the net for my wife's car and the screws are separate and cost 26p each. (the net only costs 11.15)

Installing the footwell net.
I assumed the 'screws' would simply screw into the carpet. It looks like I need to make a pilot hole. Is this what the rest of you have had to do? I wold like to check before I vandalise my wife's car.

Thanks for that. I see that I need to fit it much further down the tunnel than I had intended.
Without a pilot hole the 'screws' cannot be fitted!
