WTD: (pics of) boot cargo net

NikTheGeek · 10th August 2009, 21:35

Before I spend £20 on a boot tidy net from SMC, can anyone send me a pic of one installed in a saloon? I can't picture what the 2 parts are for and where they go. So do I really need one?

tnx

One net goes under the rear shelf, ideal for a map or umbrella.

The other fits across between the rear lights, and is useful for holding small bottles upright (1 litre sort of size)

I'll take a pic for you tomorrow sometime unless someone else does first.
One part is like a hammock and is slung up under the rear parcel shelf one hook on each corner.
The second is more like a bag and is suspended between 2 supplied hooks either side of the boot opening.
I have found the bag invaluable. The hammock less so but it keeps a my lightweight raincoat and hat out of the way.

I don't find the hammock one much use as whatever is in it hits the boot roof on every speed bump but it does keep my umbrella and latex gloves out of the way.

The other one is great as it stops my shopping bags from sliding around when I pop in to the supermarket and only buy 3-4 bags of stuff.

Don't know if of any help but here is the Tourer ones to give an idea:

As promised, cargo nets in saloon boot. Not the best pics. It's a working boot.

There's always a spare DG834G box in the net, quite appropriate really.

Not seen this one that covers the boot floor before - where did you find it?

Floor nets were avalable for the Rover 25 and the Rover 75 Tourer.
