Thumbs up Trunk grocery hooks!

My Ralliart did not come with any trunk accessories, no net no trays no nothing....it's very inconvenient when I go grocery shopping and stuff. My buddies' VWs have grocery hooks in their trunks and I really wanted something similiar....so I searched and searched and I finally found something that would work with our trunks.

I knew I could use these conveniently placed holes....


Found these from IKEA for $1.99:



These did not come with mounting hardware, you need to find 2 pairs of small nuts and bolts....stick the bolt with the mounting part of the knob through the hole...


Now reach through the bottom opening with 2 fingers holding the nuts....this part is really hard and since you'll be bent over in an awkward position holding a tiny nut with 2 fingers trying to fasten it on the tip of the bolt....just be patient and ask another person to hold the mounting cylinder in place for ya...

Slide the cylinder cover back onto the mounting tube of the knob...




Final step, screw the top back onto the mounting cylinder...



Looks nice doesn't it....

Thumbs up

Arrrragh, Nice idea. But my trunk is full of junk. Gym bag, baseball bat (WHAT!! Gotta problem, lol), shoes for work. All this holds the groceries in place.

Default Trunk grocery hooks!

I agree. Great Idea. I got things that are not even in the bag anymore after driving they all just slide around in the trunk..
I need to do this to my car.
Thanks for your info/ contribution Heliart

Damn.. I need more than two hooks... I dont wanna drill bunch of holes..
Oh well, two hooks are better than none.
Any Ideas?
