Deck Bungies knotted below the deck?

Thanks for your input, but that is not what I am looking for. If I understand your description correctly your bungies are inside the compartment and pull down on the hatch.

These bungies I am refering to are for holding maps and stuff.

What I am looking for is a way to stretch a bungie through a hole and knot it under the deck. I have heard that if the hole is small enough the relaxed bungie will expand enough to seal the hole.

Anyone have any ideas about this? Thanks.
