Does anyone have any ideas about mesh netting I can sling between the A/C
pillars, above the rear glass. OR along the inside walls, above the back windows (say A/C pillar corner to hanger knobs) for added stowage. For small soft things, like clothes, flashlights, sunscreen, books, maps. Almost like mini hammocks.

Didn't find anything at West Marine or camping surplus store (lady there told me something I was describing was removed from the market, cause' some kid got wrapped up in it?)

Check out Gowesty's "Bungee Cord Gear Hammock." It's part #GVW-34508 and it's $11.95. I actually just installed this within the last week and I absolutely love it! Quick, easy installation too.

I used two of these, one installed as shown in picture under A/C unit, the other right behind it attached under the upper bunk (used shorter screws instead of ones supplied so they wouldn't poke up through A/C or upper matress).

Hung this one approximatly as shown.

Some of these might work, just verify measurements.

Try Sears they had some that were different sizes but still within the
same price range as GW.

I thought I heard an echo when I typed in Bungee Cord Gear Hammock .
Sometimes direct links do that. Cool
