For the record "Bungee Buddy" was the official name. Above appear to be a clone, as there NOT a fancy as the OEM BB I purchased at the Rhinebeck MOA back in 1998. 

Pricey, cabinet door handles/pulls work as well or better. $0.15 cents stainless steel.

A few options ... the bungi buddies won't really work for things like Rock Straps so the other two may be an option too.

I have been thinking about the bottom item for my bags ... I like the cabinet handle idea ... think I will go cruise the hardware store.

My problem is I have a mixed set of bags, a type 3 left and type 2 right, both have the 'buddies.'  Been trying to match them up since I bought the bike in April.

The potential 'cipient would either have to live w/ the holes [I couldn't] or add them to his remaining bag, lol.
