I have the factory fitted retractable luggage compartment net which works very well. Comes up roller blind style from the front of the luggage compartment cover and hooks into brackets in the car ceiling. Probably expensive to retro fit, and you may prefer wire mesh though. Certainly very neat solution that can quickly be hidden when not needed.

The genuine metal BMW dog guard is an excellent item and at £50 that was a total bargain. I paid something like £130 for mine from dealer but even at that its worth it as its so strong and absolutely no rattles. Just uses the seat hinges with big plates to keep it firm.
