Coat Hooks
Buddy of mine has a CR-V and those guys have coat hooks built into their rear grab handles.... I want that! There's not really anyplace to hang stuff like drycleaning or my suit jacket when I'm driving to work (yes, I use my E while driving with these things....I know I could probably lose my membership for that...).

So, his looked like little inserts. I looked around and found them on the HondaSUV.com marketplace. Just thought I'd share in case someone else wanted something similar. See it installed:

Those links don't seem to work.

Huh, now the links work for me.

So how did you install those?
And would you mind providing a link to the page where you purchased these?

Thanks.

"install" is easy. they simply go around the handle and then snap together behind it. They work great. Got them from the marketplace section of hondasuv.com. look for CR-V stuff and you'll find the hooks.

Here's a coat hook alternative method. Get some carabiners (like those on the rear seats and attach them to rear handles. They're very versatile and give the car a high tech look.

Carabiniers large enough to fit over the handle are NOT cheap.

While I like the idea of a closed hook (so hangers can't "overflow") and may go to it later, I bought, as a test, a large stainless "S" hook at my hardware store. Cost less than $1.50. Looks VERY functional.
