linkster Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Is there any way to secure this in place? I can't see one, don't know if it's been damaged and replaced at some point but very annoying to find anything I put in there slides around like mental cos the carpet isn't attached. Or just another quirk of the car? Quote
mbs Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Must have been replaced IMO mine doesn't move about, however a luggage net is very useful Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 If you fit the Nissan Tonnau Cover it has 2 metal arms that attach to the boot and then to the tonnau. This keeps the carpet from moving and as mbs says the net helps. Also some well placed velcro may help.... Quote

Seem to remember Nixy supplied me a cargo net for the promise of a drink, or postage or something. Been a life saver for tying stuff down Quote
linkster Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 Thanks all, can you recommend any places to buy such nets and covers? (or there's always Holdcroft..) Quote
Chris`I Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I seem to remember someone saying a Pug 307 net fitted or something, could get them cheap on ebay. Try a search for "cargo net ebay" and see if that turns anything up Quote

3FIDDYZ Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Thanks all, can you recommend any places to buy such nets and covers? (or there's always Holdcroft..) Got mine from a local stealer as they had some 350 parts on the shelf that they hadnt shifted so got the tonnau cheap. You could make your own, there is a template on another 350z forum if your handy... Someone else was making them too, not sure if hes got anymore for sale. Nissan Cargo net I got from the states as they are about £15. They are a little different to the Pug ones as they are double layered and form an envelope, so work well for smaller items. Trying to remember who from now, will find receipt and post the name later. Quote
linkster Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 ooh, thank you. I was leaning towards the tonnau, pricey though it is, but may try the net in the first instance if you have someone reliable for delivery? Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Here you go linkster http://www.carbeyondstore.com/auto-part ... Cargo-Net/ they have a few other bits too including the Aluminium Door Sills for £35.... Think I may be making a few more purchases!! Mark Quote
M13KYF Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 you may have to pay import duty so take the cost of that into consideration. Otherwise go to Holdctofts, you can also get forum discount form them Quote
Liam's Z Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Velcro would solve your problem... Defo worth while investing in the cargo net Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 you may have to pay import duty so take the cost of that into consideration. Otherwise go to Holdctofts, you can also get forum discount form them Think there is a £150ish import limit now so its worth while on the small stuff. But then buying in the UK will make it easier if there is a problem.... Not that there should be with a cargo net!!! Quote

I import a lot of games and movies and sadly that is not true - got stung for £15 on a £30 order from Amazon lately. Quote

linkster Posted February 19, 2008 Author Posted February 19, 2008 I meant a specific year.. Never mind. Quote
H5 Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 The boot fixings etc. should be the same regardless of model year for both cars. Quote
