Oh man. I actually like that better than the soft type attics. Wonder what the weight limit is.

I like it too but usually have items stuffed to the roof in that area.

I reached out to KAON to find out weight capacity and confirm prices are AUD.

Current exchange rate as of 5.5.2020 - $1 AUD = $0.64 USD

KAON says: "Safe Weight rating would be 10kg but we have had our 30kg son hang off the shelf as seen on the Kaon YouTube video we posted on the weekend." I asked about video as I don't see it on their channel.

I would be concerned about putting things on the top with the delicate headliner.

i have a roof net type attic now meant for a 5th gen 4runner. it uses the handles from the middle and 3rd row. Taller middle row passengers hit the net so this is a good option. I use the net often to keep jackets for the family.

New '22 GX460 owner - any reason this wouldn't fit a '22 model? AFAIK it's basically the same as the '21 right (as far as size and all)

IMO: '22 should fit the same as previous years
