Location of umbrella straps

Can anyone tell where these are located in the trunk? I don't have them and I would like to add a set. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, I think they actually fit to the underside of the boot (trunk) lid, I have thought about them but as I sometimes have a very full boot the brolly would possibly get in the way in that position.

Umbrella straps

They replace the two plastic rivets in the center of the trunk lid liner. My wood handled Jag umbrella fits perfectly in the straps.
Enjoy.

Are they aftermarket? That sounds like a nifty feature!

They are a factory accessory like the cargo net, cargo trays, etc.

Thanks, Jagfan
That's what I thought, but had only seen them installed in some bad photo's around.
I ordered the umbrella too, so I hope they get here by the weekend.
