Not sure, but isn't there a couple of lugs which push through the inner wing, and a screw/bolt through the wing? It was a few years ago since I last had a box on mine....

The bolt goes though the inner wing and you do it up inside the wheel arch (may have to remove the arch liner on a sapphire as think the liner is bigger than the 3dr one)
It bolts on from the side of the inner wing too, can't remember exactly how so im putting riv nuts in mine and just bolt it in place
