There are 2 screws on each end of the package that screw through the kick panels into the door pillar. Also there are 2 more screws or rivets that attach to metal brackets that screw to the inside of the firewall. One is just to the right of the steering column and the other is just below the left side of the glove box door. However these brackets are attached make sure you get them as they support the center of the package tray.
