Default Drill Holes / Quick Ties/ Key Ring / Climber's Hook (Carabiner)

-I drilled a single small hole (large enough to accommodate a zip tie) in each of the plastic hooks, closest to the the netting.

-Ran Zip-tie through hole

-Used zip-tie to retain keyring or circular piece of metal in plastic hook and secured zip-tie.

-Attached a small Climber's Hook known as a Carabiner to keyring.

Now you will be able to use Carabiner to clip the cargo net to the securing rings.

Default Hook the loops in upside down

Instead of hooking the chrome floor loops from the top (with the plastic over the top of the chrome floor loops), turn the hooks upside down so that the chrome floor loops are on top.

Default I quickly figured out that the net will not hold in a keg properly, therefore it was ditched as a

lightweight mod.
