Cargo Net Installed
#32
As many have found, the D doesn't come with upper cargo net hooks. Very frustrating when you find yourself having to go across the street to retrieve an onion that rolled out of the back when you open it. I ordered the Dodge cargo net (part # 55217379) and, as many attempted, started to jury rig something to work, using the plastic bag hook that's on the right and for example the velcro hook set up like this:

However, the hooks would not stay on mine and wanted something that looked like it belonged... not jury rigged. So I searched for something that would work and found my solution with the Toyota 4Runner. There are cargo net hooks (part # PT347-35991-HK) that are approx $3 or $4. I thought that was per hook, so I ordered 2. When they arrived I found out that it comes with 2 hooks, so I now have extra, but at that price I don't mind:
They are easy to install, just a flat headed bolt that goes through the panel and the hook screws onto it. It does require drilling through the panel and access to the back of it (both very easy):
After installing it looked much better in my opinion and the plastic bag hooks are still usable if needed. This is the cargo net that can be opened on the top to hold things in it as well:
Of course if you decide to do this, where you place the upper hooks are up to you. Just make sure you take the time to measure and be certain they are where you want them. At least there is finally a good fix to the lack of these hooks.

Do you mean the bottom hook on the cargo net? The cargo net I used for the original mod was part number K82210267. I've heard the new model durangos have a cargo net available and not sure if it's the same or what hooks the added to mount it. So if that's what you're looking for I don't have the info unfortunately.

I don't understand how Dodge decides what goes where. I had a 2012 Citadel and it had no hooks or net. I saw several post online from people with 2012 that had both. I like the Captain chairs on your D. I needed the extra space so I got the bench seat instead. Since I ordered mine it was a difficult decision to make. I also got the factory Blu-ray and Dual display.. Well worth the extra money.

I am thinking about getting one of those rear cargo liner. Did you cut your to get the hooks through. The one I saw has no holes.

I have the exact same model. The two small raised squares on the left and right are where the hooks come through. They send it with them still attached since they don't know if the end user will use the hooks underneath. You just take a razor knife and cut them out. I just did it on three sides of the square and it makes a flap for the hook. I'm personally really happy with the back cargo liner.
