Mine knee keeps hitting that too. Does anyone make a cover or something for the lock unlock button?

I have a huge assortment of zip ties, note to self...I did the following as a temporary fix but it is still working so it will stay at least for a while. What I did was scrunched up the loose netting and put some zip ties across the top, no more sagging. The attached picture is not the greatest but this netting was very saggy before the zip ties. The netting works just like it did when new. This took about 5 minutes to do.
I just installed just the driver side so far, and I completely agree; the bottle holder sticks out too far and rubs against my leg, which I find uncomfortable, and I'm not a big guy. Although they look like stock items, I personally think this was a poor design in that respect. The other issue is that this is not reversible, and if thought this would be an issue, would not have purchased or installed them. I've considered various solutions, including purchasing a new stock saggy net, but think I'll try designing and 3D printing a smaller compartment to replace the water bottle holder. This will require cutting and attaching the new part, probably with glue and plastic filler, but not quite sure yet. I'll post pictures once completed.
LOL, in the 80's we'd go to the O Club at Ft Wainwright and order 7 and 7's. They always tasted better than any others I'd had. One day we got the bartender to tell us how she made the. She used Squirt instead of 7 Up.
Thanks for the write up. It's definitely one of those mods I should have skipped and just tied up the nets with zip ties (or cut them out completely).As I mentioned earlier, I didn't like the Unofficial Use Only pockets, as the water bottle part sticks too far out and uncomfortably rubs against my leg. I also don't understand why the other part of the pocket is that narrow, which can only accommodate maybe a few pieces of paper. I first tried modifying the water bottle part, but lost patience, so looked at every possible solution I found online, and ended up with these Sheam pockets I found on Amazon (I have no affiliation). They do not require removing the door panel unlike the Unofficial pockets, but since I already installed the Unofficial pockets, I had to cut most of them out except to create a frame similar to the original mesh pockets for mounting these. They don't look as stock as the Unofficial pockets, but work much better IMO. There is still an area for a a small or rectangular water bottle, but stick out much less than the Unofficial pockets (they also have a straight version that doesn't stick out at all), and though my leg still hits them slightly, being rectangular instead of round makes them much more comfortable. I also like that the narrow area is still practical for other stuff, while leaving just enough room to get to the seat controls.
