Just picked up a 2005 Nissan Murano and it has a plasticy tray in the trunk. I really like it, but it allows groceries to slide around too easily. I picked up a cargo net for the back, but that just helps a little. Doesn't help when there are a lot of bags back there.

New cargo net.

I started looking at other ways to secure bags of groceries and looked at the gaps in the toneau cover brace.

I thought it would be really cool to install some kind of hooks onto the crossbar where the material leaves gaps.

Anyone ever try anything like that? Anyone seen some kind of hooks that are really low profile on one side and have a hook on the other so that it doesn't slice the bag open. Something like this is what I was thinking.

Gonna try Home Depot today for some grid hooks. Otherwise, these are exactly what I'm looking for:

If the kid played soccer (or any sport for that matter), I'd agree. ;)

Looking to make a light duty off-roader/camper. Have to make a mattress for the back. 6'x4' is plenty for the kid.

Some other toys to install:
