: I popped the hood on my minivan and took out a bolt from the top of
: the fender on each side, then put a loop of webbing that was
: long enough to stick out the good when closed, threaded the bolt
: through the webbing and reinstalled. The same was done on the
: back by opening the hatch and removing a screw from each
: taillight. My front and rear tie- downs have a carabeener on
: each end, so I just click to the boat, click to the webbing
: loop, tighten the strap and tie off the extra. No crawling
: around on the ground and it take like a minute so no excuses not
: to have them on.

I think I saw something like this last night. Did you use a grommet or a washer? The pic I saw didn't and that concerned me.
