Here is my Molle install...

I had to pry a little on the vents to get the snaps through but it works none the less. I weighted each bag with ~7 lbs of diving weights. They still have about an inch of clearance (underneath) with the door closed. are you worried if it comes snapped the it will come back through the vents ?

The attached pictures show how I routed the straps through the bag loops and vents.

Here are the exact ones I got. A set of 2 larger ones and a large/small set.

i had a friend take mine vent door off but and put the zip tyes through for me and put it back on for me because i dint know how to take it off with out breaking it lol so mine sags some with the zip tyes and its not strong. i had 1 zip tye break already. i need to learn how to take t of i guess. i just afraid i will break it lol. you need a tool so it comes off right with out breaking a clip i was told
I didn’t use special tools... just my hands. I started where the wiring goes in and gently pulled back on the panel. The clips are along the perimeter. Maybe 10-14 is my guess. Came off easily without thinking I would break something.

Cool thanks where did you start they started by the wiring with a wire goes in by then phar lap is that a good place to ph I guess it goes on easier than it comes off ? that does look like it would hold up a lot better than zip ties with rings because those broke on me lol

Yes, where the wiring enters the tailgate door it is enough to grab onto and pull out. One downside of routing the straps through the vent is it’s not easily removable. But, I don’t plan on removing it much anyways.

Yes because if you do it a bunch of eventually I'm sure something will break. if it was to come undone and the weight pulled on it would it pull the snaps out of the vent or are they hard to get out. Those now could come I'm done easy and I hate the way to pull it out or did you have to pry it in there so it probably wouldn't pull it out

I don’t quite understand your question.... but the vent panel I pulled out with my hands. To get the molle strap through the vent, I had to pry the vent open slightly for the snap to pass through.

I asked if the snaps came on done on the back and the weight of the ba fell would it pulled the bag out pretty easy or with the snaps catch it in the vent because it was hard to get in and would be hard to come out ?

Yes, if the snaps on the bag came undone, the bag would not fall off.

okay I need to find a friend of mine close by and said to going all the way where I did before and have somebody on Snapchat for me and put the bags through this time. I did not have the bags when I took it off so they just put zip ties through for me and the zip ties broke because of the weight on 1. I don't judge myself doing it LOL. I ordered those custom patches like that other guy had. The 1 x 5 They did look pretty cool. That's what's bad about the zip tie they just pull right through if we're not careful. And when I broke one I have to start over so I don't want to buy that table it would be easier if i have the table but I'm not paying 250 for the table I would not use enough to justify paying that much.

Try Tactical Taylor malice clips, you can cut the molle straps off and use them. Super thin, flexible, and could easy undue them. Haven't tried them yet but figured it should work.

I couldn't get the MOLLE bags snaps through the louvres... picked up some $ store velcro straps and we're good to go. Large one has a first aid kit, one for the survival kit, the other for miscellaneous.

do you think these would be too big by the time you got them full notice how they have two zipper compartments. Wonder if it'd be too heavy for 4 of them after you got them. 2 compartments in each bag ?
