Default Does anyone ever use those hanging hooks in the back??

Those ones on the front seat backs? Then today, doing some inside window windex-ing, found two more hooks, one one each side near the triangle rear window! I always love Porsche’s mission to be a functional everyday sports car (like I’m a functional alcoholic? lol) but come on Porsche! Four hooks in the back?! Who uses them??

I need a vote please lol.

Me for one, never. I considered hanging a plastic bag for my trash but it will swing all over the place during my spirited drives lol

I use it to hang a suit jacket/blazer. Usually there's a loop on the back of the jacket to attach. - it seems to stay put on the window hook better than the seatback hook.

I also never noticed them.

I once tried to use a hanger on the hook on the front seat but alas, it didn't fit so my suit coat just gets wrinkled laying in the back seat. I assume Porsche sells a custom-fit hanger for $250 but I am just not game for it.

Same here with hook on the back of the seat.

Had my Cayman S for 4.5 years and I couldn't tell you where the button for those are, glad they started removing them in the USA, it cleans up the front.

I use the window hooks all the time. I use two key rings looped together, one small ring over the window hook and my dry cleaning hangers go through the second bigger ring. Supports a lot of dry cleaning without falling off. When not in use my looped rings go into the smoker package tray (just fits).

You, sir, are a genius!

I've been trying to think of a better way to handle my wife's dry cleaning and never would have come up with such a simple, elegant solution. Tonight I raise a glass to you.

I don't use the hooks on the seat backs, but when transporting drycleaning or my service dress uniform to work, I have a small d-ring attached to one of the two tie down points in the very back of the car (is that there for child seat anchors?), and then put the hanger(s) through the d-ring and the stuff lays flat running from the back toward the front of the car (my back seats are always folded down).

I use the one on the back of the passengers seat. I got a setup where my holster hangs from it. Easy to grab the Glock!

Hang my coat sometimes.

My rear seats are flat 99% of the time. Nice storage. Really helps with Home Depot runs.
