    Ok so my brother made me these out of 550 cord. I love them and so dose he, they have many uses ( O-$#%* bar for rear passenger, add a carabiner and hang groceries, attach a quick release and hang your AR when driving on the ranch for easy grab and go, hang a jacket, shirt, or pants so that you don't block the rear window, and the list goes on) so here is the question is there any interest for a set (2)? They can be done in any color or 2 colors everything from solid colors to camo from des. tan to pink camo. He makes them by hand and they simply attach to the headrest posts via a loop. He sales them for $30 shipped in US for a bunch of jeep guys and gals, and i have a feeling that the taco guys and gals would love them as well. Give me some feedback so that if its something that you think you would buy/use or anyone else here would buy/use I can get with him and start to fill some orders. Out time on orders should only be 3 days give or take unless he has to order a color that he dose not have instock, and at that point he will order the color to fill the order and will have to wait till he gets it in.
    Thanks for the feedback,
    Marcos

    Interesting idea. I can think of quite a few uses for something like that. I get that they're hand made, but my gut reaction is that a price point somewhere in the 20's might make them more attractive.

    Good luck though. It's great to see people thinking up new stuff.

    Everyone seems to be making these. At $30 though, I would think that's a bit high. I know they're hand made, but I wouldn't pay more than $15 for a pair shipped.

    Could do 25 plus shipping but just did a blanket 30 with shipping. I will talk to him and see if that is the best he can do, but as stated just just looking for the feedback so he can get a good product out to others and be fair
