Revelate Viscacha, the little D rings on top...

..., show me how you've used them to carry extra stuff.

I thought about getting some elastic cord and some sort of adjustable sliding clamp doohickey to stash some gear under.

Mine came with paracord and a slide lock. I also got the small mesh bag that can attach to it to put stuff in. Great bags.

I stuck an elastic cord on mine with a cord lock. Ran it in around the edges then across the middle so its a square with a cross if that makes sense?

Can stuff a jacket or drybag in it, and have used it to hold a D-lock which worked really well coz it kept it out of the way, but to hand.

[mcmoonter]

Hmmm, mine didn't come with any of that stuff.

[Owen]

Mine didn't have any either, just used some I had already.

I tend to keep that sort of stuff "just in case", cut out of old bags/waterproofs etc. Come in handy to add extra compression or stuffage on all sorts of bags. Quite handy to just strap a water proof on to the bars too.

That's exactly what I did. Found some red elastic in Millets, which did the job beautifully and colour co-ordinated too :)
A cord lock and your sorted

My memory is failing me. It didn't come with any, I had some paracord and cord-locks in my fabric drawer. Getting old.

[ScotRoutes]

The early Viscachas had no D rings, only some fabric loops.

I have a Spocket attached to mine.

Not the cheapest thing to use unless you have them kicking around but I have used old triathlon trainer laces (stretch cord & lock thing all come as a package) from a former life -

That's pretty much what I did, except I loop around a bit more to give more security to whatever's under the cord.

Mountainbaker, that's how I configured mine. All the bits arrived in the post this morning, took a minute or two to figure out the best the best routing.
