C6 cargo net location?
Quick question - where is the cargo net on a 2011 convertible located - at the rear of the trunk or front of the trunk (at the top storage compartment divider)?
Just bought the car and the cargo net's not there - I can't find any pix of stock trunk / cargo net to determine location.
Thanks

Search eBay for a c6 trunk net or google
it.
it can be mounted either front or back or flat lol
they also sell small nets that go behind the seats

On an OEM GM parts site, I saw where the schematic looks like it goes at the front of the trunk, but I never trust those schematics (if you read the fine print).
Any more info on the storage behind the rear seats would be helpful to get me started on my search.
On the OEM GM site I saw some kind of storage behind the seats, but I don't recall them being nets - they showed as discontinued.
I need to utilize every empty space I can in this car - I feel like I'm packing for my old sport touring days (motorcycle).
Actually, I'm probably going to use a lot of my old motorcycling travel stuff in the car.

That's the FIRST thing I do, but not knowing the exact search terms (along with outdated pages) makes for a lot of searching.
Figured it would be easier / quicker just to ask in here, but maybe not...
Anywho...as stated, on an OEM schematic it shows the net being at the front of the trunk - I just ran across some site that is all cargo nets, and they state the OEM net goes to the REAR of the trunk.
I see what is probably a cargo net hook at the front of the trunk - will have to see if there is anything at the rear.

Checked & I've got the hooks at the rear - thought they were just screws to hold the carpet in (probably are - dual purpose?).
They look exactly like hardware that's in a 2003 Buick Century I inherited from my mother - guess you can use a cargo net on the old Buick also!?
I got a build sheet at the dealer - my car came with a cargo net, but I guess a previous owner or the dealer must have sold everything in the darn car on eBay?
