Questions about the Cargo Cover...

1. Does this $149 cargo cover include any vertical separator or barrier between the cargo area and the seating area?

2. Is it easily and quickly removable/deployable?

1.The barrier is vinyl with velcro on the bottom to secure it to the carpet.

2. Yep.

Have been using my cargo cover for two months... it's a must-have. A really great design. Note that it has an ingenious still-in-the-car-but-out-of-the-way storage position if you ever need to remove it for hauling big items home from Costco. It makes you feel like you have a trunk just like the big boys do.

DIY cargo cover

Or you can make your own custom cover for about a third of the price. See this page on the Evilution site: http://evilution.co.uk/index.php?pag...p;men=interior

I had the same thoughts about making one, but I don't think I'd be able to create something with the spring loaded shade action (or the spring loaded way it installs) which I prefer - also gotta say, even though the thing is expensive, it does seem to be well made and has been a very nice addition to the car - nets on the passenger side included.

I got mine from smartcenterriverside for $149. The vertical pice attaches with velcro to the floor and has very handy mesh pockets on the side facing the passenger compartment.

I haven't figured that "out-of-the-way" storage position. could you post a pic? Thanks!

I have had my $149 cargo cover for a while and love it. Keeps all the flat stuff in the back where it belongs not under the seats after the first time you put the brakes on.
