Trunk net

Can anyone post a picture of how the trunk net is supposed to installed in the trunk? My car didn't have one when I bought it and I was able to pick one up but just can't seem to figure out how it's supposed to go. I've tried a bunch of different ways, none seem right to me. Thanks in advance!

There are a couple of attach points in the side walls of the trunk, they look like plastic knobs in which you secure the net..

Thanks thoiboi, I tried googling pics but they just weren't clear enough. Most of the pictures in that thread don't work anymore. Still not sure how to do it. Guess I'll just keep trying different ways. Thank you anyway though.

Thanks Skirmich, I saw the knobs in the trunk, just can't seem to figure out how it's supposed to hooked up. What loop on the net goes to which knob.

There are 4 corners to the net, the net is supposedly attached like a cradle so you put stuff on top of it so they don't roll around the trunk..
The wall knobs are the rear attach points and the front knobs (Close to the taillights) are the front attach points, Once secure the net should be like a bed and when you put stuff it will stretch and touch the trunk floor liner.

So it look like this (Bare with my Paint skills):


Hope this helps you out.

That is a great diagram... Nice job! I will give that a shot. My net has 10 attachments on it. This is what is confusing me. If I didn't pull it out of at TL myself, I would think it didn't belong in the TL. It wasn't fully attached when I took it out, otherwise I would have taken a picture of it. Perhaps it didn't belong in there in the first place, I don't know. Thanks for all your help, I appreciate it.

maybe you have the 3rd gen TL's?
mine looks like the diagram above but shaped like a U. so like a basket?

idunno, like you, I couldnt understand how to put it on and it never held my groceries or anything i put there, so i tossed it.

Yeah its probably not OEM, The original NET (I have it) has 6 Holes only..
2 are the starting holes (These are fixed to the cargo attach points near the taillights) these are always in regardless of configuration:
Next 2 are for the "stretch" net configuration which makes it sit above the trunk floor, this I believe is for light stuff the cargo net can hold by itself (I've put cleaning rags and wipers boxes here).
Next 2 are for the "loose" net configuration which allows you to put more heavy small stuff but they touch the trunk carpet so its basically for things that could roll around the trunk.

It is OEM, part # 84603-S0K-A00. I bought mine new a couple months ago and it has ten confusing attach points. It's #6 on this diagram: TRUNK LINING for 2002 Acura TL SEDAN

Hint: more than one point can go on a hook
