Hi Brent,
It's not really a "net", but I picked up something like you described at my
FLAPS (Pep Boys) a while back. It's basically a bunch of bungee cords
hooked together and attached in some sort of self-centering arrangement.
I'm not sure about this since I've only used it once, but I believe it has
around 9 - 12 attachment points. It did a good job of holding in the roof
compartment a full load of several pieces of oddly-shaped driftwood that I
picked up off of an intercoastal island in North Carolina one weekend. I
don't remember the exact price, but I think it was somewhere in the $10 -
$15 range.

Anyone ever seen any sort of "cargo net" that fits the plastic roof
compartment on a Westy? I have one for my old Jeep CJ-5 that is made of
bungee cord-type material and has hooks to clip onto the stays mounted on
the body. A smaller version of this would seem perfect.
Any other suggestions? Was there ever anything available from VW
dealers?
