Default Cargo Net Install....

Well, today I got a free cargo net for my Vette.

(I was helping my Dad empty the back of his vette for a sound system install that is happening tomorrow-after tomorrow those three compartments are going to have two amps and a sub in them.)

I found an un-used cargo net in his vette-I had been thinking of getting one since I cary a little bottle of detail spray with me sometimes. LOL

I was looking at some older threads and found one picture, but there were some dead links in those older threads as well.

I have the net and two "nuts." Do the nuts secure it at the "top" how does it secure at the bottom? I have not tried to put it in yet-just trying to avoid frustration.

There should be four 'nuts' or hooks. Two at the top and two that screw into the side right above the bottom, where the bottom of the net gets attached.

Are the two at the bottom right above the lids for the two smaller compartments?

THANK YOU

Yep, thats them, they make putting the covers on those compartments difficult sometimes. The other two should be up in the back corners by the interior lights.

I just put it under the cargo shade on the same wing nuts when not used, which is never. Keep your supplies in one of the side compartments in a plastic bag incase something leaks. It keeps the shade from drooping & flopping when there's wind turbulance.
