I camp on an air mattress in the back of the Jeep often. I'm usually looking for a place to stash things before going to bed or trying to find them when waking up. It's not done just yet but so far it's working very well.

EDIT2: I wrote a detailed response to how I constructed this in another comment. For some reason, that comment appears to be invisible? Here it is below:
I did weave it ;) Used one 100FT bag of the 550 paracord available here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039LI9K0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I actually ordered two bags but ended up only using one. I still have about 10 feet left over as well. I tried to match the color of the roof. The picture on Amazon appeared much more similar than what I received.
The rear is anchored to the child safety seat latches using small d-rings. The front is anchored to two paracord loops around the coat hanger screws with latching carabiners (The goal here was to facilitate moving the net down to the cargo area anchors. I later learned that with the additional tension of the net, this wasn't happening). The loops were spaced appropriately to allow headroom for passengers.
Each side is a separate piece. If I were to do it again, I would have made the sides one piece with a draw to adjust tension.
I studied this graphic to construct the net: http://goo.gl/tsOlZ8. Instead of using their overhand knots, I used "half-knots" with a consistent right over left pattern. I did use overhand knots at the origination and termination.
