The dealer installed the cargo net free of charge.

I have installed the cargo net onmy 04 330. To attach the upper anchor hooks you need to drill some holes. You are only drilling through plastic. The templates that came with my net seems to work just fine. make sure that you have them on the correct side of the car. Good luck.

Ok, I'll just add in a tip that was shared at another forum, and it's something I realized myself.

On the inside walls of the rear cargo area are two lights that can be turned on/off. If you turn them on, both or just one, they automatically turn off when you close the hatch/power door... and turn on when you open it. Pretty neat!

To drag this thread back from 2 years - did anyone want to get back on topic here? Unless I have missed a different thread?

how to make your RX feel like a limo for the passenger:



Take off the front passenger seat's head rest

Side the back seat of the passenger side way back

Side the front passenger seat forward as far as it goes

Recline the front passenger seat so is almost flat


Now your passenger can seat in the back seat with his/her feet on the front seat and it feels like you are on a lazyboy or a first class flight. If you got the drop down DVD that would be a plus

VERY IMPORTANT!!

Make sure they wash their feet first

This might not qualify but I will still state it. For those of you who do not have navigation, the best location for a portable GPS (JM2C) is the lower left hand corner, driver's side.

I plan on running a power line to that corner so that there will be not exposed power cords.

I will post a pic of where my clarionmind is.

Yeah, when I found those little lights I was pretty excited, but more excited when I found the 3rd 12volt power receptacle. That was so cool considering all the 12volt powered items these days, especially with kids in the back seat playing their DS's and stuff.
