Solution to Keep Hopkins Collapsible Vehicle Trunk Cargo Organizer from Sliding on Rubber Mat
Question:
Ive seen where this unit has Velcro strips on the bottom to prevent it from sliding around on carpet. However, for a cargo compartment that has a rubber mat instead of carpet, what prevents this unit from sliding around?

Expert Reply:
The Hopkins Collapsible Vehicle Trunk Cargo Organizer # HM74113 does come with hook and loop fasteners (like Velcro) that you can add to the bottom of the legs which would help to grip a carpet floor. If you have a rubber mat then it's possible that the organizer could move around depending on how smooth it is and if there are any grooves or anything in it.
I spoke with my contact at Hopkins who said that if you have a smoother rubber matt then a possible solution is to use two sides of a hook and loop fastener; one would attach to the bottom of the legs and the other would attach directly to the rubber mat. You should be able to source these locally.
