Question Replacement frunk rubber band thingy

[actionjem]

Hello, everyone!
I bought my NC700 yesterday (2013) and it's missing the handy dandy rubber band thingy to hold things in the frunk. I can't find a replacement online. Anyone know where to find one? Thank you!

Frunk or Trunk (top case)?

My 2012 nc700x has no handy dandy rubber band thingy to hold things in the frunk.

If you want the genuine article, order it from a Honda OEM parts source. Here is the number, description, and list price, although you should expect to find it at a discounted price

50290-MZ7-000

BAND, U-LOCK

$20.93

If you want something similar but cheaper, see if you can find a comparable large O-ring from a hardware or plumbing source.

I think he is referring to the rubber band that can be inserted in an X fashion on the battery compartment door. If so, any thick, appropriate size rubber band would work,,,even a small bungee cord would work.

Thanks for assuming, but this he is actually a she! But yes, that is what I was asking about. I can't bring myself to pay $20+ for a rubber band, I think I'll try a bungee cord. Thank you for the idea!

I use elastic hair bands as a replacement. They can also be used as emergency hair bands.

Oh wow! I've got long hair as well and elastic hair bands can be used for many things, but I don't think I've got one long/big enough to perform frunk rubber band thingy duties.

The ones I use are similar to these: https://www.amazon.com/Goody-SlideP...884-481c-b6b4-bdce52076560&pd_rd_i=B00E5CLMDI

Genius! Thank you for the idea. Less than half the price and I can get 6 of them.
