I'm pretty sure that I have seen this covered a couple of years ago, but damned if I can find the original thread via search.

Just to hook shopping bags and the like onto, I believe, to keep them upright. |

Not sure of the correct usage but my 3 sided dog tarp is designed to use them to help hold the sides up. |

Magic, thanks Pab and all contributors. Not sure they would hold all the weight of Mrs. Badgers Tesco bags, given her liking for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc..... Foraging near Gaydon....

Hold the bag from the local Indian takeaway a treat, drive home sharpish to keep it warm and don't loose any

The D2 has a large hook in the passenger footwell designed for takeaways

I find them ideal for hanging up the dog whistle - means I've always got one to hand when I'm out with him. |

I've heard on here they aren't very robust,a take away is about all i would trust to them a proper bag of shopping with tins etc and i wouldn't use them. |

This is the D2 takeaway/shopping hook I mentioned earlier (google photo) It is still plastic and more stronger than the panel trim clips.

SYFL2 is correct - they are not very strong!

The D2 bit was always known as "The curry hook" I fitted one to my D1, it was secured by a self tapper from behind and a locating peg so very secure - even for milk. MY14 TD4 manual XS Orkney grey.

On the Jag X-Type, there was a hinged hook incorporated in the glove box handle. It was described as a ladies handbag hook. It was great for takeaway bags though, a chap on the jaguarforum (from over the pond) used it to hang his girlfriends undies on while they where 'having fun'! 2010MY 2.2 e4 (gone but, not forgotten)
