galaxyg Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 After 4 months of Z ownership and 4 months of shopping and stuff sliding around the boot, I'm wondering what I can get to prevent this. I've seen the cargo nets but I'm wondering if they're useful for bag/boxes of groceries? They can be quite large and the net doesn't look that big. Are there other solutions for preventing the sliding of stuff / anchoring it down? Quote
Randy_Baton Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) The cargo net is pretty stretchy and can be clipped to the underside of the brace to give more room (i.e not clipped to the floor). If you look under the brace there are 2 clips, its the kind of thing you only notice by accident! There's also a boot release latch hidden under the brace; you know, just in case you get locked in that tiny boot... Edited March 20, 2017 by Randy_Baton 1 Quote

da.murf Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 Might have an answer to this dilemma. Will up date tomorrow. Found a net recently they might work. Quote
veeg33 Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 The OEM ones can be a bit small for shopping bags. Try alternative ones, pics here -> http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/89200-boot-cargo-net/ Or try this from Fleabay --> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/50-x-80cm-Large-Caogo-Net-Luggage-Nylon-Elastic-Mesh-Net-Universal/361925250036?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D2220071%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3Da5f936adc16343c8a8f08154d49d9c28%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D282112165732 This is about 5cm bigger than mine.....should be OK for shopping bags......this is from HongKong, hence expect up to 1 month in delivery....£6.36 worth a try Quote
coldel Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Bradders on here has a net he got cheap off ebay and uses to hold down gear in the boot - he had it for the Scotland trip, did the trick. Quote

Try alternative ones, pics here -> http://www.350z-uk.c...boot-cargo-net/ The cargo net in all the examples pics is tied to the floor, you can get a lot more under there if you tie it to the strut bar. I might be able to take some photos at the weekend. You don't get any more width but you pretty much get the height of the boot. Helps to have a tonneau as well. 1 Quote
