Between the two large gray panels, under the tool drop down, is a small panel.

Just holes drilled in the trunk steel ? Or are there plastic female plastic things that are screwed into the lid first,...
That are missing, don't appear on realoem.com parts drawings or any photos, to inspire the inquiry.
Trunk lid panels
IIRC you twist the retaining strap to insert it into the slot in the bottom of the trunk, no screws or snapping in.

Perhaps it's been noted over the twenty plus years I have three of these things. Two 12's and a 24. Another three having returned to the Earth from which they came.
But not totally. They left parts. One of which is the little gray vinyl covered panel in question. It sat on a shelf for two years, to make me see it, think I should do something with it, perhaps put it where it should be ?
A 633 has that panel pushed into holes in the trunk lid. Both 528i's have holes drilled in the lid, too small for the plastic pegs to fit. The fact that there are four small holes drilled in the trunk inspires my imagination to visualize screw in plastic receivers, four little screws, into which the vinyl panel is fastened.
For the Pebble Beach Concourse all points committee choice award. Otherwise, a drill bit the size of the pegs and a fist punch got the panel off the shelf, onto the trunk lid, far less visible for creating disorganizational sress.
