Envelope style cargo net mod
I don't like the factory floor net, it doesn't work well for larger items or things that you just want to keep upright in the trunk, like a grocery bag, so I decided to rig up an envelope style cargo net that will do the job.
Purchased the net on Amazon: link Next, and this is optional, modified the hooks and thinned them out a little bit with a utility knife so it's easier to hook them to the side pockets. You don't have to do this, it just makes them a little easier to attach. Last step, attach the bottom hooks to the side pockets, and slide the top loops over the side hooks. The net works really well, I can easily drop a grocery bag in and it stays put, or my backpack, or any small items. Very easy to set up, and completely reversible. |

Nice, but won’t work on an MY23 onwards UK version as there’s only one side net on the left.

For UK cars, I wonder if there's something that could be attached to the liner to give you a hook point. A different way to do this, that I used in my wife's Acura, is to use a hook/loop strap and just attach it to the fuzzy side walls in the trunk. Acura's trunk sides a fuzzier than ours so it worked really well.
Or maybe just drill a small hole into the liner, attach a loop or something similar. |

Not sure about UK cars, but my 2023 US car had only one grocery bag hook. I was able to purchase another one which replaces one of those push pin fasteners. This is for the top mount point as newer cars only have 1 grocery bag hook, won’t help for a bottom mount point unfortunately
