Default Heavy duty tailgate net?

The tailgate on my 2000 Tundra was recently damaged. I've removed it, and having priced a new one at the dealership, am thinking about a tailgate net.

I bought a "Highland" net at the local autoparts store, and it's a piece of junk quite frankly.

I don't expect to have the same security as a real tailgate, but is there a net made for the Tundra that doesn't have junky mounting hardware, and is reasonably robust?

Thx!

I never owned one, but I've seen some out there that were made entirely out of chains. I assume that you could make your own and be assured of quality. Kinda cool when you think about it.

I like the chain idea. I think I'll head to my local hardware store and peice one together. You could clip it up or down with some carabeaners also adjust the tension.

Ok, chain idea sounding like the route I'm going after seeing the various different colors and sizes you can get steel chain vinyl coated. I'll be measuring today and purchasing the chain. I'll post pics installed when done.
