One thing that perplexes me - is the function of the black fabric "tag" that is about 3-4" long, in the center / top of the cargo net. It doesn't seem to have a function?

Other than maybe to pull on it to separate the two sides quickly?

Has anyone found a nice "clip" to use between the two "sides" (front/back) of the webbing if you have only one or two items in it, and you want them to stay upright, and not slide all over?

 

i never used my net for the 3 years that i have the car

 

Send it over my way.

 

Yes it's handy at times. I don't keep it hooked up because it can get in the way, so I disconnect one side and keep it off to the side.

I love mine. Use it to keep everything from sliding around.

 

I use mine daily. I have 2 fabric shoulder bag-attaches. One has maps, Escort box, extra fuses, warranty info, etc. and the other has non-car items. Both go between the trunk edge and the first net (the one closest to the opening). Other items go in the net when needed. For suitcases, I usually take the net off. I actually liked the one in my I30 better, as it attached in about 6 places, including further into the trunk, and gave more options for arrangements for different items.

Advice to those who carry milk in the trunk-BE CAREFUL! As noted above, it stinks forever unless carefully cleaned. Several of us (including my brother) spent a good part of Thanksgiving taking my brother's Volvo's seats out (all of them) and cleaning the carpet, etc. after a 1/2 gallon of milk spilled in the passenger area. He then spent the next several months taking them out regularly to clean the carpet and the underlayment. Make sure your milk is safely stowed, preferably inside a sealed box.
