I'm sorry I guess I'm confused so I can't use those straps on my molle bag I have to use the molle bag there or one that it works on ? How could I make that strap work in the molle bag I have now. I'm sorry I don't understand I apologize
You cut the strap off that's on, or tuck it off to the side, thread that through the all the molle on the back of the bag then weave it through the rear tailgate then lock it in. It feels thin and cheap but I use it on my vest holds up extremely well

I got a few things from a company called "Tatical Baby Gear"- Their Molle wipe pouch and dump pouch. I figured this was a fitting thing since the whole reason I bought this Jeep was to haul my wife and son around, and maybe do some family off road/ out door adventures as he gets older. Super high quality products, and the tags even have the "proper Molle instructions" that show you how to weave it. It's pretty strong. I got them off amazon but their site is: https://tacticalbabygear.com/

I also removed my broken plastic boxed Medkit for a Funnasun Molle Medkit and stuffed it on the back of the driver seat. I'll be checking out some other bag options in the near future for some of my other stuff (tow strap, tree saver, winch controller, etc) that needs to be secured and out of sight. I didn't even realize this was the point of those slots in the tailgate as they were plastic and didn't think they could hold anything. I'll have to check it out a little closer. Tools are still getting locked into ammo cans and bolted down, though.

my daughter is 17 now but man I remember 17 years ago having to carry a girly diaper bag around LOL if I had a baby right now which I'm too old to do that now and start over but if I did I would have that tactical diaper backpack made out of leather in the changing table that's a drop zone that thing is badass that's so rugged-looking and military looking I love it what a great idea I would definitely have one of those today every Dad should have one of those right now that has newborns or babies at home rig

I did the same thing. I had to do a little trimming on the back side.

How come in your photos you didn't have to cut the back of the vents off and other people did and they look to be the same size mollle bags?

You might be able to fish them through without cutting, it will be very difficult and the straps are not long enough to complete the weave. I uses a very sharp razor knife. Once you make deep scores, take a pair of pliers and just snap the piece off. Don’t force it. If it doesn’t want to break just keep scoring it with the razor. Pretty easy to do.

Good luck.

It is possible to get them through without cutting. The snaps are tough to get through though. The main issue is you cannot weave because the straps get to short from going around the vent. End result is with out the weaves the bags sag. Just pop off the panel and check it out. It is simple. Good luck.
