That is a cargo hook, there is a cargo net available to go across the trunk. You said it is not missing on the left but is missing on the right side? ---

Your picture is not very clear and are you asking about a truck or a trunk ? ---

It is probably supposed to look like this… ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/f/e/fe362bcfb8ffced15fdd727076ae2d0e01b427ec.jpeg) ---

I can’t see from that angle what is wrong with the cargo hook. Below is how the cargo net attaches, those things only get in the way. If I had one in my car, I would remove it and place it under the cargo floor for the next owner to have fun with. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/a/0/a06a4bd5b149844d9a3a20055ca91079d4e0a158.jpeg) ---

@whiteybookings_178816 OK , I had to really increase the size but it clearly has ( 12 V ) on it . It is a 12 volt outlet and if you have the manual it will tell what it can be used for . ---

It’s either as described above or a hook for securing items with your own web or could be a finger hold to pull up the tire cover. I hate to say it but it is probably pictured in the owner’s manual. Sometimes this stuff works and sometimes it doesn’t. I have thrown the nets away but also use them in another car. Paid extra for a trunk mat but stuff slides around so much it just sits in the garage.
