Hi Ross,

It my take some work to get it through but I'm sure there would be room if you stick with 1/4" shockcord. For your info the end fittings such as the hooks and the end pieces I used for the hatch tiedowns are most readily available in 1/4" size. Also the hooks I used, have to be put on after the cord is run through the fitting. No big deal though they are reuseable.
