I’ve been in this situation a few times where I have something hanging out the hatch of a car. Often, there isn’t really anything to hold the hatch down. But at slightly open positions like this, the handle for the hatch is perfectly oriented to clip a bungee cord on and hold it down.
Is this just a coincidence? Maybe. Still pleased me when strapping it down in the parking lot
I do wish there were actually a hook of some kind, though, for when it’s significantly more open. Not that I’ve actually needed that.
I’ve always just latched the hatch door lock onto the bungee cord metal hook, on my hatchback.
none of the times I’ve had to do this have been with a vehicle where the hatch latch had a spot to hook onto, they’ve all had the receiver on the hatch and the loop on the trunk floor
Yes, use the bungee hook as the “hoop”, by shoving it into the channel the hoop would go into. Then hook the other side of the bungee to the hoop.
ahh, gotcha. I did look at it this aft but didn’t even try as none of my bungees were short enough anyways
I should find out if that will work for this car
