anyone know where i can purchase one of these cargo nets.... i havent been able to locate them on any websites?

 

check out www.hondacuraworld.com AZ vendor if it's not listed on the site, give them a ring.

 

Stupid question, but I'm asking because I didn't know.

Have you checked in your spare tire area? The net actually comes with the car and is located under the spare tire cover. I had no idea, and half expected it to be with the trunk tray I ordered.

 

yup, my 2008 came with the cargo net under the trunk mat. not sure about your 2005, but check there first.

 

Edit by Admin Ron A:

You can't post that in this forum.

 

Good catch, GLowdrd. check out the spare area.

 

.

 

i have one.how do you put it up?

 

Now that's a good question. I tried with no success and just put it back under the spare tire.. lmao.

It probably didn't help that i have a trunk tray and kept the tie downs underneath instead of poking them through. Oh well. I'll try again someday when I'm bored.

 

Depends on how you want the net to work. You can set it up as a hammock style net or more like a tie down. Just wrap the bungee loops over the tabs in the trunk in whatever configuration you need.

 

I was just reading this a moment ago, then came to realize that I may have a cargo net in my trunk...so I ran out the door, checked, and yes I do..haha, I love these forums.

Anywho - I lifted up my trunk lid for spare tire access, and there was this loose cap-like thing just sitting in the well. It has a sticker on it that says "Do not remove. High Voltage (25,000 volts) can kill"

Anyone have any friggin clue what this is? I can't look further into it at the moment, as I am at work and do not want to pull out my golf clubs.

Thx!!

-oh, its a '05 TL Type - nothing. DGP 5AT

 

no idea about the cap bro... but i did find my net too. Look what doors i am opening up though! Now we are talking about vigh voltage caps, NICE

 

Yeah, but I think I care more about replacing the cap that says on it "Do not remove" I really don't know what I'd do with 25KV in my trunk, except maybe a portable plasma deathray gun or something

 

haha, yeah seriously....thats pretty strange

 

Cool- you've found the nets.

Here is a thread with photos that are much more helpful than the owner's manual: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65547.

And welcome to AZ!

 

I call shenanigans on the high voltage stuff. There is absolutely nothing in the TL that really has much for voltage. Maybe if you stuck your tongue to the LED tails and were somehow able to step on the brakes at the same time.

Or put a wrench between the + and - of the battery. Than I would offer you a warning. Otherwise I think the cap was perhaps some kind of a warning for something other than the TL (you leave town alot, or receive any vibrating packages in the mail? I hear high-voltage vibrates a little if touched)

 

Oh... and you're all welcome for the net advice. Sometimes it takes someone that doesn't know to admit they made a mistake before and realized something useful.

Now only if I can get the condensation out of my tails....

 

yeah thanks GL, your info was very useful

 

oh that explains it..i only have the little one..the big one must have been taken by the net fairy

 

probably just a sticker. take a pic of it and post it.

 

I have no idea of how to situate the cargo net in my trunk. How can it be that hard? Someone take a photo of that to show me, please.

 

Psst.... Will posted a link with pics up on post #14

 

SCORE! I was just about to spend $30-$50 on one of these cargo nets! Never even looked there!!! AWESOME! Thanks for the tip! I had the big one in there and the small one. I have owned my car for 5 years and never knew that. :-)
