Cheap cargo net (photos)
xizor asked me if I had any photos of the cargo net that I'd installed and I do, so I threw together a quick web page for it. This is not the OEM net obviously, it's just a plain Bell brand SUV cargo net clipped to the stock anchors with some aluminum carabiner-type gear clips. Please excuse the poor quality pix - call me Mr. Shakycam...
Here's how it looks (click for larger image):

You live in a polluted lake...I'm guessing you're Aquaman then

My guess would be Mississauga somewhere. I thought the plate on that BMW had to be ONTARIO, which is very similar to our plate when seen from a distance...white:P

lol, I guess mappoint isn't exactly accurate! Yep, I'm from the M-dot as we like to say....
Oh, by the way majormojo, nice work and sorry for the threadjacking.

Thanks for the compliments. I find the net does just what I need it to and the price was right. That is also a Rubbermaid toolbox in the net. I think so, anyway. Another $7 CanTire bargain.
To continue the thread-jacking, Toporama is a great way to look up Canadian maps. I use the topos and the orthos with my GPS and mapping software.

that is one cool mod
i saw this thread last night
and i installed it today! heheh
great thread! thanks for sharing
however, i noticed that the hooks might cause some scratchs
to the plastic cover in the middle of the trunk (bumper side)
so i used some tape to cover the area that might be damaged...

i just have a cheapo toolbox from target in my trunk with a bungee cord holding it against the back of the trunk. i have one of those foil solar shades between the box and the plastic on the trunk (so it doesn't get scratched). a good use for a solar shade that i never use. heh

So, we now have the map and your co-oordinates. Do you feel like a target yet?

I have bungees running across the D-rings, with a plastic bin from Ikea nestled against one side, and a couple of collapsable bins on the other.
