what about the trunk?
what about the trunk?
those of u as obsesed about ur cars as i am may find it anoying that when you drive stuff just flies around the trunk, my tool box is always hitting something back there and making noise. anyone have any ideas or done anything creative to organize thier tunk? all i have is a tool box, jumper cables and a fire extinugusher (for some reason) and im tiered of them flying around.
How about using the cargo net? I personally keep all my stuff in a plastic crate held on by a bungie attached to the lower cargo net loop on the side. You could attach your toolbox in a similar fashion or stuff it behind the cargo net like I did.
the cargo net is great. and instead of a toolbox i have a toolbag. wider base and lower center of gravity. it wont tip over and has rubber feet so it doesnt slide very much. i keep my jumper cables in with the spare tire
How about a trunk monkey?! I hate my cargo net. It always seems to get in the way no matter how I configure it. I wish there was some way to afix a couple small boxes on either side of the trunk behind the wheel wells.

i have the OEM cargo net, balled up in my rear seat now for some reason, and it was good for holding most things, id just prefer a place to put my ratchet and lug key and socket.
I drilled 4 holes around the sides of the trunk and installed some heavy-duty eye bolts (like a pickup truck would use, I guess). Then I have 2 tie-down straps that run between them and hold my tool bag/box in place. Oh, and I also have a G35 cargo net (which is better than the maxima net)....

i think without totally inihilatiing your trunk and spaciousness. id get a cargo net. i also found it nice to replace the old truck flooring with that partical board stuff. im waiting for the rest of the materials thenim changing the trunk flooring.

bottle of windex broke, and the tire cover bent cuz there was some heavy stuff on it. called dealership, it's $108 to replace. so i went to home depot, spent $6.97 for the exact same material and jig sawed it to fit perfect.
nice to have that extra $101.03 in my pocket...

my particleboard cover has been SOO messed up...mainly because I've always had 150lbs of stereo equipment back there...
i love the cargo net..whenever i borrow my sister's altima (no net), i get really annoyed and miss my car

I used some wood blocks, cutting the size that I need,cover them with the same fabric (color fit) use to cover subwoofer's boxes. You squeeze them in order to form a # pattern. I use to do this in my Subaru to prevent my amp/sub to go visit all the trunk when drifting

O well, I guess my glassing project will have to move faster now.
