Cargo Cover

[raynan]

I am more than pleased with my 2005 Matrix. However, I was distressed to see that Toyota decided to use that cheap plastic tonneau cover in the cargo area. Every other similar vehicle that I have ever had or seen uses a retractable window shade type of cover, which seems to me to be more efficient and much more attractive. Does anyone know of an aftermarket window shade type cargo cover that can be adapted to replace the cheap tonneau cover? Thanks for any advice.

I was pretty peeved at the cargo cover too when I first got it but after getting more use out of it I'm glad this is the style we were given. I like the fact that you can cram a bunch of crap in the trunk and have the trunk covered because the cover can 'flex'. I initially wanted a retractable cover but that would have also left us w/ a hard bar that spans the width of the car. Kinda crappy to have if you need to fold the seats down. You'd have to remove that 'bar' as well. Currently, if you need to remove the cover you can just roll it up and it folds up neatly w/o taking up too much space.
