Trunk-lid tie-down

A Trunk-lid Tie-down arrangement holds a car trunk lid or hatch lift-gate at a partly open position for transporting an oversize package or other large cargo piece. One component is an insert plate formed stainless steel or another suitably strong rigid material, with a pair of eye openings. The second component is a length of a cordage or rope, favorably ten feet long. One of the eye opening is inserted into the vehicle's latch for the lid or lift gate and is held there. The cordage extends from the other eye opening and can be tied to the hasp for the locking latch. At the delivery destination, the insert plate is removed by unlocking the lid or hatch gate, and the package can be removed.
