Ok - first time starting a post -

Knowing that everything in my car has a purpose - in the trunk of my car (2001) on the left side is a greyish hook. What the heck is this for as it looks out of place to be doing any good?

I have checked my manual - can not find anything about it. Have asked my dealer - who thought it might be something to do with the cargo net - but we dismissed that as there are many tie downs for the net near it.

Any ideas - or am I wrong and it is for the cargo net?

Thanks - your resident OFOB (old fart on board). Tink

Are you talking about the hook for your cargo net?

 

So is this for the storage of the net? (As a light might be going off....)

 

Are you referring to the hook on a string attached to the trunk floor?

If so, it hooks to the underside of the trunk lid, lifting the trunk floor thereby providing easy access to your spare tire.

Nope - I think that one is black. I am referring to the hook on the left side of the trunk - about 2 inches long. Thank.

 

I know what you're talking about - it's just a hook to hang grocery bags and the like on, for convenience. They have hooks like that in the trunks of Jaguars and other high-end cars. My sales guy confirmed its purpose when he delivered the car to me.

Gotcha - makes sense now - Thanks!

 

Yep that's what it's for... I hook bags onto it..

Oh man! that thing?!? You guys are missing the point. Remove that and you get extra 5 horses. Dead weight!

 

LOL

 

Hmm..Thanks for the info - picture is worth a thousand words. Now - how much horses would be picked up if the driver droped 20 pounds.....

 

Ah, that's what the hook is for. I had no idea.
