Right, so... back on topic...
I flipped up my carpet and sure enough I have two little slots under there -- is there some kind of magic widget that is supposed to slide in there? I think a D-ring or similar would be a lot more useful -- am I missing something?

Bungee cords with small-diameter hooks should do the job - that's what I'm using right now. It's not the prettiest set-up in the world, but does the job (keeping my stuff from flying around during turns, braking, etc.)

I guess I'll have to abandon the idea of using the factory slots. Not going to have my dog crates flying toward toward me like the last time someone looked me in the eye and pulled out anyways...In that type of situation I get a flashback of roadrunner cartoons when adding bungee straps to the equation!
I think most of us were looking for an anchor point with enough structural integrity to take advantage of using camlock type straps.
I like the Dring idea above but I'll have to install in the rear corners to take advantage of the tubular raised platform that I tradionaly use.

I went to my dealer today, because they got the d-rings they ordered for me. It was a warranty issue, as the factory had forgotten them. The d-rings fit into the slots and bolt into the little holes next to the slots. If you need info for your dealer to get you the d-rings, I'll post some pics soon. The standard equipment sheet is printable from the Jeep.com website...

I also take it You're also An 07 Rubi. Can you let me know your build date?
When I go into the dealer I'd like to be sure we're talking apples from the same basket.
