Lazy Lounger Hook

We like to hang out in bed with the back doors open, stargazing, listening to music, napping. However, we often fall asleep back there, and then it's late at night, cold outside, and I hate having to get out of bed and go outside to close the doors.  Cue the Lazy Lounger Hook...


I got some of these nylon 'extension cord organizers' ($7) and attached them to the doors using an existing Torx bolt in the latch mechanism. I secured it using a fender washer. This is the loop for grabbing the door to close it with a hook.



The hook needed to be collapsible for storage in the van, but long enough to extend out to the far corner of the door. For the the extending handle, I got this telescopic extension pole ($13.50). For the hook, I got this utility hook ($13) for putting up Christmas lights.


For mounting the Lazy Lounger Hook, I used these Grip Clips ($4) and fastened them to the side of the bed.



Ahh, no more freezing 2:00 am departures from bed to close the back doors...
