PSA - Don't use the hooks behind the front seats to hang your dry cleaning :(

[Riviot]

Had you seen that GIF before or is your searching skill THAT good?

I cannot unsee this and now I’m going to picture a dog’s tongue whenever I look at the seat back hangers. Even without the felt.

Seriously WTF is that dog licking?

?

You can use this...or get really creative and learn to tie a knot that won't slip in a short length of soft rope... https://www.amazon.com/TOUGH-Synthe...&keywords=soft+shackles&qid=1688552941&sr=8-6

My solution is not owning any clothes worth dry cleaning. My Misfits T shirt is just wash and fold

Dry cleaning is so 2019.

(As a more practical solution, a small loop of rope so the hangers hit below the soft plastic?)

Hoping I can replace this part at some point because it drives me batty looking at it, but this was after hanging my dry cleaning on the hook behind the driver's seat ONCE. If you don't want scratched up fixtures, find someplace else for your dry cleaning -- but WHERE?!?! Would love your ideas because I am out of them....

After this, I tried laying my stuff flat on the back seats, but of course the second I pulled out of the parking lot my dry cleaning was on the floor... SMH...

Try putting a piece of surgical tubing over the hanger ends before hanging them in the truck.

OK, My Amazon search skills are failing me today. Any chance you have a link for those or at least how and where you found them? I've been wanting something with a little bit bigger hook for baseball caps and raincoats. Those look like they're worth a try.

Couldn't find the exact ones either but some options for you:

Amazon with fun colors but without the double hook

Thanks! Those gave me better search terms. Eventually found those first ones on Amazon, but they're $2.47 more expensive, so better to stick with Walmart anyway.

You could cover the trim with this.

And they make it in a few different colors/styles if you want to change the look up.

If I didn't have wood there I would get these and paint them to match the truck body.

Also, search for "headrest hooks," for other options.

I thought they all looked like this.

I’m w you brothah!

I'd buy one of these Seat Back Tablet Holders and use it instead of the hook.

I think only LE R1Ts have wood..

That sucks. I just lay the dry cleaning in the frunk. Hang it up and remove the plastic when I get home. No fuss, no wrinkles.
