The storage netting on my doors and passenger foot well has become loose and saggy, along with the storage pocket material behind the seats.
Has anyone came up with a solution to restore or replace these areas?
Besides just tightening up the top string and tying a knot, I also bought this little pocket door bin on amazon. It serves the purpose to hold a few little things. Then, the netting becomes just cosmetic. I've had it two years and still like it.
I bought some 1/8 inch bungee cord ,https://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-1-8-x-1...sAAMXQt~hSKlHI, cut the old cord out at each end. Measured out the new cord to about 2/3rds the length of the pocket. Tied a couple of tight knots in one end. I was able to separate the panel from the door just enough to push the knot through the hole. Wove the new cord through the net an did the same thing on the other side. It's not a perfect solution , but it works

That sounds like a good plan. They are getting old and starting to sag just like me.
I wonder if a 1” nail pushed halfway through 2” from the end and then it and the bungee chord are pushed through the hole. I think the nail would return to 90 degrees and stop the bungee chord coming out. Do it both ends and your done

If you zoom in on the back side of the panels, you can see where the bungee comes through.... very apparent when you look for the white dots (rubber cording). I would have copied the pictures and posted them, but I'm unsure as to how much resolution would have been lost.

Re: Replacing interior netting on storage pockets
If you remove the door panel, you can tighten the top cord by pulling on the end (you'll see the metal ball attached to the end of the cord where it comes through the back side of the door panel). When you pull it tighter it will automatically lock into the new tighter position.
