<div> <font size="3">I'm in the same boat. My car has had the remnants of a bungee cord which I removed recently and I wish to replace it with something more elegant. It has not risen to a priority as yet but I've been thinking of some nylon strapping similar to what you find on backpacks. Some hardware stores carry it in bulk where you can buy it by the foot and the buckles, connectors, whatever they are called are also available.</font></div>

<div><font size="3">Like I said, it is not yet something I am pursuing but it is on the horizon. Other options will be of interest.</font><br>
