V8V trunk net

[EVR]

I wanted to have a small trunk net fixed to those four plastic thingies:



Measures are 90cm x 10cm, I can't seem to find anything though. I read somewhere a Honda S2000 original trunk net might fit, but I am not sure.

Any hints? Thanks.

I got one on Ebay for about a fiver, its a bit deeper than 10cm but does the job

I got this one. More than a fiver, but I was happy with it.

I’ve got one of these too and it’s spot on for stopping stuff rolling around in the boot

There’s a guy in AMOC selling the correct size for the Vantage... although don’t know whether it’s for the top or where you want it. No affiliation with seller, contact details below

The eBay listed one is specifically for the vantage mine even has a model tag on it. It fastens to the four lugs on the upper part of the boot floor.

I think similar to others, this is the one I purchased and it is spot on, a perfect fit on the slope, I even have the Aston umbrella (never used but looks good), a must to take advantage of the boot space.

So whats your connection to AM upgrades? All your posts promote their stuff without exception.

I may be wrong, but my guess would be that it's the same 90 x 30 net that's advertised by various sellers base in China at circa £6, with the addition of the little AM tag - it's not an AM part. I have the £6 option and I cant see any difference in the close-ups.

This is from Ian Short, as below. Fits to the upper part of the boot space. It’s excellent.

I am not at all looking for a AM part (not even sure if it exists), the cheaper the better actually!

I just would want one that would fit in the vertical part of the boot, I would leave the slope free actually. Hence 90 x 10 cm. If you guys are saying that even a 90 x 30 could fit there, I will buy a Chinese one.

If you look at the pic of the 'more expensive' one, it is attached to the upper slope - not just the bottom attachment points, so I suspect it's the same dimensions as the 90 x 30 one (if not the same item as well!).

I doubled the 30 x 90cm one up, which is 'ok' for the lower attachments, but not quite right - I have a roadster so don't have the slope and only have the lower 4 attachment points.

Got it.

Yeah, I went in and looked for official parts from small cars. The Lotus Elise one will not fit. I remember having read on this very forum, a member that had a Honda S2000 had the net fittingly perfectly in his Vantage now. But eBay searches for this are just showing the small cabin pocket nets.

Rather than starting a new thread - has anyone got a link to a decent cargo net for the VH Roadster?

Sometimes shopping needs to go in the back!

I assume the 4 studs for the wind deflector are the only fixing points in there?

[EVR]

I actually never managed to find one and eventually gave up.

Ha, old threads never die!

I've added one with velcro backing to my Amazon basket - I'll take a few measurements tonight and see if there's a nice big area for it to bond to.
