Are you saying you don't have a storage net hanging from the hatch lid? My '10 GS (bought used) came with one and I just assumed it was standard equipment. It is within reach from either driver or passenger seat albeit a bit of contortion is needed for most access.

I've got a storage net stretched across the very back under the hatch. Anyone who can reach that while seated is an orangutan.

Agree. You would need 5' long arms to reach it.

The OP actually asked about something that goes behind the seat backs.

No nets that I'm aware of, but there are a ba-zillion ideas for storage compartments. Just search the forum. Some are home-made, some bought.

My buddy (either "Pats Garage" or HB Surfer) gave me a no-effort idea a couple of years ago. I'm lazy and no-effort is always my default position. It was a decent looking storage box I got at Lowe's, wood-grained, that I leave behind the passenger seat. It holds all the odds and ends that I carry with me. And, it does not really slide around.

But there are much more elaborate (and labor-intensive ) ideas here on the forum, if one wishes to go in that direction.

According to the OPs profile, he has a vert. Do you also have the net across the back of the hatch area; I don't have a net hanging from the hatch, behind the seats but what does hang down is the flap from the cargo shade. Maybe the rear cargo net can be clipped onto the front of the hatch instead? I'll have to check it out.

I do have a cargo net that is less than 12" from the divider directly behind me and it is accessible from either seat as I said. I also have a curtain (cargo shade) but early on I used a pair of binder clips so that it is clipped up and out of the way.

Which one did you get? Curious how well those clips hold, they don't look particularly strong.

I don't have one yet, I never knew about them until this post. I would think that those clips will be OK as long as you do not put too much weight in the net.

Found another cargo net option for the back end.

Search "Turtle Wax Backseat Cargo Net."

About 12 bucks. Fits OK, I added 4 inch long loops to reach the stock net hangers without over-stretching the bungee cord. Groceries staying in place now!
