alright, maybe i'm just not looking at this thing correctly,but for the life of me i can not figure out how it hooks up in the back. the car came with it, but it was in a plastic bag underneath the rear shelf, and the bag didn't have any type of instructions to go on. does anybody have a picture they could attach of the way it looks set up?
like i said, it's probably something so simple, but i just don't see it...:red:

each side has 3 clips, there is a loop for the bottom clip and it is the only one in the middle which makes it the bottom
you will see one for bottom and 2 for the top

Just remember......no questions are stupid. If you don't ask, you don't know.

Yup there are no stupid questions but sometimes you get a stupid answer. :lol: :nuts:

I was sitting here crackin up reading this! :D I thought exactly the same thing. And there was no way I was going to ask- I thought I would see if it was in the manual. I was looking at this cargo net, going.. hmmm... 6 hooks and only 4 latches. I'm no rocket scientist, but I was stumped. Anyway, I hooked it up with the only way it would make sence, and managed to do it correctly :one: (according to this thread). So, from this point forward, I will not hesitate to ask questions.

Yes...they should all come with cargo nets. Mine was in the cargo area of my car in the spare tire compartment. Also in there was a cigarette lighter, my front license plate frame and a couple of velcro straps. Did you get any of this at all?

If it's not there, look in the two small storage bins behind the rear seat - mine was in there.

Hope it helps,

Good point Mike...I had my HHR about 2 months before I even realized those bins were there. Guess I should have spent a little more time seeing what was in every nook and cranny. Cargo net and a couple other little things are in those cubbies now. ;)

I will have to look when I get out of work tonight..its 4AM im getting tired..ill ley u guys know if i find it..thanks for the tips

ok, this rear cargo net has me completely baffeled... can someone tell me how to connect the net properly? i'm sure the way that i use it to hlod down my lunch pail is wrong...

When I hooked mine up to begin with...it certainly didn't look like that picture either. I don't use mine much, so it's in the little compartments behind the rear seats, but I'm sure when I travel, it would come in quite handy. Looking forward to your picture...sounds like a hoot. :lol:

You're more than welcome Bgnozdude...we're here to help and learn from others. That's why this is such a great group. :smile:

And then there's Sindy....who's always Sindy on-the-spot. Thanks for merging the threads. I always try to post a link when I know there is something similar and she's right on top of getting them together. Thanks Sindy. :thumb: :one:

I don't know about you guys but I think the cargo net is pretty worthless. If I put something in it is swings back and forth while driving and hits against the back door. If it weren't so close to the door it might be worthwhile but I just took it back down and threw it back under the cover.

I use my net as a tie down and place everything under it. I use the four loops on the floor of the cargo area. 2 on eithers ide of the tailgate (floor) and 2 on either side if the back seat (floor). works very slick! lay the net flat on the floor and see what I mean.

I was hoping someone else read the owner's manual like I did. I thought spreading the cargo net out like 1HHR described would help to hold down all those plastic bags they give at Wal-Mart but I haven't tried it yet. I tend to take the old car to busy parking lots. That first door ding is always heartwrenching!

thare are actually a lot of different ways to hook it. I have the cargo deck in the upper position and seats down with some old curtains velcro'd to front blocking contents. the cargo net actually is located above the cargo deck still. I also got another cargo net off of ebay and really makes for alternate hook ups.

So what is the velcro straps for?

I believe I read somewhere that they are to be used in conjuction with child safety seats and the little thingies in the small compartments behind the rear seats.

The velcro straps that are with the spare tire are used for holdong down the flat during transportation.

each side has 3 clips, there is a loop for the bottom clip and it is the only one in the middle which makes it the bottom

LOL, I was putting all 3 clips in the side hooks. It worked, but I think I'll put the bottom clips where they belong. That'll keep the net from swinging. Thanks for the pics. :lol:

I'll admit the damn thing sits a bit close to the hatch so you have to situate things so they don’t get in the way of the door closing, but I prefer putting the groceries and other items of the nature in the net so when I slam on the breaks they don’t come a visiting me in the front seat. :D

I like 1stHHRs idea! I knew there were more hooks up at the front of the compartment but I honestly never though about using them! haha

I use my cargo net and run it along the right side to hold the car cleaning stuff and laundry detergent. I think its pretty handy
