    We just put a ring around the front tube where you have the front latch. It just slides up and down the tube, and holds all of the slack in the net.

My concern is in the area where the a pillar starts up toward the roof. If there's nothing to attach it won't the corner of the net be loose if it's only secured at the top?

Here's a picture to clarify things. Hopefully...


....one at the top....



Sum

Our has Velcro there. The tension from the top keeps the whole net VERY taut. For something to get out that corner you would have to get INTO the dash, do a 180 and come back ou t the thin slot between the downtube and net. Remember KISS. Unlike the Stude, our truck and Hank have almost vertical A pillar tubes.
