Quick cargo net question...
I was thinking about getting one to hold a few loose items in the trunk, but wanted to make sure where it installed- is it close to the trunk opening, or more forward against the back of the back seats? If the latter, I don't see it's usefullness with that big spare tire in the way.
Anybody have a pic handy of it installed? (I did some searches, and learned of the installation tips, but no pics)...
Thanks!

Yes, it is tight against the trunk entrance lip, not the rear of the rear seatbacks. Overall I like having it, however, I do occasionally snag a piece of luggage on it and have to back it out and reinsert. I keep a quart of oil and a few items in it that would otherwise bounce around a little bit.

It goes at the very rear of the trunk, right at the opening. Getting things in and out is way easy. You said you found prior threads on install; I would reiterate that using a hammer to gently tap in the four anchors worked very well. Otherwise, getting the screws to start in was virtually impossible for many people.
