I feel ashamed not knowing the physics since I'm an biomedical engineer an all (LOL). Thanks @mplsbrian and @carys4 for the insights. I might feel safer to use the hooks now.

As for photos, I'm a bad photographer but I found someone else on the forum with the exact same color as my car, albeit he got premium plus instead of prestige but outside it looks the same. And did I mention he is a much better photographer than me? If you are looking at a Navarra Blue, trust me, the following photos are what you will see in real life.

Not sure how to give him credit or tag him but here's my attempt:

The Navarro blue looks amazing. I am glad to hear you considered the Mercedes and BMW interiors infotainment system. What swayed us as well.
Audi hit the target with their tech package.

No joke I love those hooks lol. My plastic Kroger bags do dangle from there but it keeps everything inside. I used to constantly have stuff spilling out in previous cars when I placed them on the floor of the trunk.

Oh, and I also got a Navarro Blue Prestige. Love it!

Another positive experience with the grocery bag hooks. The thing is the lit says you get TWO hooks -- if you ask nicely, they do make good on them, even though they apparently have to cough up the cost of them (the dealer that is.)

I hang the Kroger bags on them -- up to 6 of them (three per side of one hook) and even though they swing, they don't spill, and nothing -- so far -- has ever fallen out. Ingenious!

These are the kind of "inexpensive" things that really impress the poop out of people -- and then AoA decides to cut it from two to one?

I know someone's gotta pay for diesel-gate, but grocery hooks? Really?

Curious: where exactly does it say that you get two of them? The order confirmation for my S4 doesn't even mention that I'm getting a shift lever or shades for the rear seats, and unsurprisingly it doesn't mention the number of trunk hooks.

As an aside, I used them exactly zero times during my 6.5y long ownership of my 2011 S4. I had two The cargo net and cargo basket is in much higher demand, though.
