    Love that hook. Holds my heavy coats, easily.

    Gotta get that hook! It's on my endless "to do" list.

    Thank you!  Your set-up looks great and I can see some advantages during travel for some larger items back there. I might use some hooks or provide a means of letting the net down if I need to...  Well done!

    @cbarnhill - Where did you get the mounting hardware for the cargo nets?

    aldebaranjill: the hardware for the large net in the back came with the net. I believe we used regular screws with the small net over the side valance.

    Be careful drilling above the light switches - there is electrical wiring in there. I chose to mount a double hook on the wood valance under the switches to use for leashes. I have a triple hook beside the shower that we use for coats.

    Got my cargo nets installed (Organized Dobie).

    Note that my T@B has a rear storage "cabinet" that has a lid that opens, so needed to make sure there was clearance when stowing my sleeping bag in the cargo net, so that lid would open. Thanks to this thread for help! :-)

    Look how well my sleeping bag matches my pillows, which matches the green accent colors in the upholstery. =)

    For coat hooks, my Commad hooks have worked well and never come off in two years - And, no drilling :-)

    Yes, sticky tape works well for shear forces, but not tension. I tried it for the cargo net but they all popped off within an hour. Depends on application and types of loads.

    Just finished installing my Outback cargo nets. Purchased over the phone from NuCamp parts department. Small net $10.99 and Large net $19.99+ shipping.
    They provided all clips and screws.

    1.  Where did you get the cargo net material and how much does it cost.  2.  Any concerns drilling the coat hook into the wood above the light switches.  I wanted to do the same thing but was concerned about where they ran the electric for the switches.  Sure wouldn't want to put a screw thru the wires!

    @drpprmt, Go back to the beginning of this post. Lots of good info with a couple ideas other than calling Elsie in parts for the side nets. The side nets are standard for the Outback model T@Bs. The back netting folks ordered from another outlet described in this posting. For the hook, use screws that won't penetrate all the way through the wood & you'll be fine. Just measure the depth of the wood, and use the appropriate length screw. :)

    Just installed the cargo nets above the windows in my T@B 320 S and am very pleased with how they turned out.  I think it's one of the inexpensive upgrades anyone can do. Cost from NuCamp for the nets was $30 and came with plenty of screws and clamps.  It required a "square" head screwdriver, but I had one.

    I bought 4 nets from organizedobie in 2017 and now 5 years later, they are all useless, having lost all their elasticity. I don't store anything in them long term, just when camping, which is small fraction of the time. I called organizedobie and they said this is to be expected.

    Has anyone had better experience with ones from NuCamp? I don't want to replace them so often.

    Same thing happened with ours from OO, except the thicker cord around the perimeter is fine.  It's just the netting itself that hangs down with no elasticity left.  Disappointing.  Same question, Do the NuCamp ones have this issue after 4-5 yrs?
