Correct 2-man cargo barrier installation?

I checked the TM's and I searched the forum. All I can find are references to the cargo barrier "extension."

I have the 2-man cargo barrier and I'm not sure I'm installing it correctly. The bottom has L-brackets which line up with 2 large holes in the cargo area. Ok, fine so far.
It would seem to me that the D-rings on the bottom of the partition would face towards the cargo area where they could be used in conjunction with the other D-rings in the bed.

Well, this leaves a rather large gap to fill under the partition. I know there's a seal, I haven't bought it yet.

Then, there are two brackets at the top, to secure the partition to the B-piller but the orientation isn't obvious to me yet. Does anyone have any decent photos of the installation?

there are 2 brackets at each side on the top. One fits inside the b-pillar, and the " bolts to it. Then a single bolts through each top corner of bulkhead and that l bracket.
Just put some thick squishy foam under it.

Shoot, are you saying that there are 4 brackets total, at the top? I only found two.
and thats why it doesnt look right !
5575466 aka 12340723 is the flat part in the b-pillar. you need 2 pc
12340709-1 and 12340709-2 are the l shaped pieces that bolt to the b-pillar pieces.
Oh wait, the TM does show the tiedown loop between the bulkhead and lower bracket. I guess it was just me that didnt install them.... I edited my previous info.

Ok, I'm missing several pieces going by that picture. Thanks.
What TM did you get those part numbers from? All I could find were part numbers for the extension.

Edit: Wait...ok, the large pieces on the ends of the photos, I do have. That's what's mounted to the base of the partition.
I have the L-brackets.
I *think* the I-shaped pieces may actually be on the truck already.

The T or I shaped piece will likely not be in the truck unless on the floor. Once you take the 2 bolts out that hold the L bracket to the flat piece, the flat piece will just fall down.

Crap. Well the P/N nor the NSN come up in Kascar's inventory even though you provided a photo of the complete kit.
It comes up in Part Target as "Plate, plain nut" but I can't find anyone actually selling them.

there is an issue with Kascar's new website update. If you search for "bolt" or "fuel" or any other word, you get a maximum of 7 results, even though there may be 100. You can just call and tell them what you need. The parts do show up on macmotors.com (out of stock). Kascar may have them in stock. I sold mine already.
