Abstract: A trunk tie-down has a catch that releasably couples with a strike of a vehicle lock mechanism, and a latch connected with the catch, that releasably couples with an opposing catch of the vehicle lock mechanism. The latch may have a first latch portion and an opposing second latch portion, each being generally U-shaped with a bight and a pair of legs. The legs of the first and the second latch portions extend toward each other and are coupled together. The bight of the first latch portion may also lie in a first reference plane while the bight of the second latch portion lies in a second reference plane. The first and the second reference planes may be perpendicular. Each of the first and the second latch portion bights may have a dimension of thickness with the second latch portion bight being thicker than the first latch portion bight.
