Default Q regarding hang up garmets

in a normal sedan, you might hang a suit or a dress shirt on the hooks in the backseat. Since we don’t have anything like that on the C8, I’m wondering if you can lay down a few things spread out on the battery cover above the frunk, Has anybody read anything that area Must stay clear, don’t do this, etc. etc. etc.?

The only alternative I can see if if you’re a single driver is to hang them backwards over the top of the passenger seat, but I’d rather not do that.

I loop a rubber coated cable tie around through the opening in the passenger seat head rest. Then I hang the clothes hanger from the loop. That works good for me.

I've wondered about this also. I've had a couple trips where I needed dress clothes in my HTC and ran out of room elsewhere...

The C8 must have been made for the driver and his stuff consisting of wrinkle free xtra clothes also for someone that hasn't got anything bigger than a check book( or are they extinct) and a phone

Same problem here with HTC - tried various "suction cup" type of hooks for behind the seat that other forum members suggested and they would always fail. Bought these from Amazon to stick on behind the seat. Rated at 22 LB and I believe it! Never had a problem.

Stick one of these on the back of each seat:

Amazon Amazon

If you have trouble with the link (I seem to) this is the product name:

Suction Cup Hooks, Heavy Duty Suction Cup Hooks Waterproof and Oilproof, Bathroom Kitchen Wall Hooks Hanger for Towel Loofah, Reusable Shower Suction Hooks - 2 Packs(Black) (Black, Small)

I'd just get a folding garment bag and put it in the trunk. They're not expensive.
