Abstract
A vehicle is disclosed that includes an accessory separating a cargo area from a passenger seating area and a mounting system that is configured to support the accessory. The mounting system includes a first bracket that is secured to a body panel of the vehicle and a second bracket that is connected to the first bracket. The first bracket is positioned between the body panel and a headliner of the vehicle such that the first bracket is concealed by the headliner. The second bracket is configured for connection to the accessory and extends through an opening in the headliner such that a first section of the second bracket is concealed by the headliner and a second section of the second bracket is exposed from the headliner, whereby the headliner is movable relative to and about the second bracket upon deployment of an airbag so as to reduce interference therewith.
