An A3 modded to look like a grandmother's living room?

Cause the cargo area is so cool looking?

It is removable and it will look much better than it would after my dog that's been on the beach for an hour rode home in it.

Default Sand is a funny thing. It'll always find a way into your car, and won't leave.

Used to just put a blanket down for our dog. Damage control, I guess.

I assumed dog, just thought it was funnier to picture your trunk like an Italian living room...

Default Your post tells me that either your vacuum cleaner is weak, or your car cleaning slaves are lazy

so the solution is obviously either

or

Default Re: cargo area protection

I've been interested in something like this myself, although not to that extreme. There's some stuff that doesn't just vacuum out, like hauling junk, and I don't want that stuff touching my interior.

The best thing I can think of, which I've been thinking of getting myself, is the plastic tray offered by Audi, <a href="http://www.audi-collection.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=8P5061180&SKW=AUA3&Cat=car&SubLeve l=11&lcat=">this one</a>.

I'd just use sheets to cover anything else, or just by sheets of plastic if you really needed to protect the rest of the interior.

Default Ask a serious question, get a foolish answer.

In all honesty, nothing of the sort exists that I know of. You can get a rubberized mat for the trunk, that's about it.

The trunk sides are an odd shape, and there's plastic juts that hinder the usability of those devices.


Your best bet is just going to be safety pinning your own version of the blanket. Use the pins for the headrests on the back seats. Be creative.

Or, invest in a vacuum/whip, as Boggy said.
