MY02 WRX

I'm fed up with my bits (road atlas, warning triangle, first aid kit) sliding around the boot. Was thinking of fitting a cargo net or something similar to hold them in place (seats don't have pockets on the back, and the door pockets are too small).

Anyone know where one can be purchased or can suggest an alternative?

Subaru do one that fits the boot perfectly for both MY01/02 4 and 5 door models.

Non slip and holds (in the four door) the piece of high quality fibre board in place!

Thanks for the replies. They've given me a couple of ideas.

Ta Boost II, I shall investigate.

Strange car in picture, split fold rear seats in a saloon, and with horrible asymmetric rear light clusters, hope they aren't included

I went thro' this about a month ago for a 4dr my02 as a toolbox had punched it's way thro' side lining - subaru boot liner is good and amazingly grippy

official cargo net is pants unless you only want to store smallish / definately lightweight (lifestyle) things in it - no good for toolboxes etc

ashamed to say it but v***haul cargo net is what I'd call a proper cargo net, i.e. load covering net with elastic sides for tension (ooerr missus ) and all for approx 22 quids but would need to fasten some D-rings onto liner or inside of boot

I nearly got one of these but have made do with liner so far as it seems to hold my bits OK

citroen do a version of the net for berlingo but at nearly 100 quid is seriously extracting the urine...

[update]

Bought the Subaru cargo net. Hooks into existing holes in the crossbeam in front of the bootlid. Heavy warning triangle makes it touch the floor of the boot which is ideal. No sliding around. Very pleased
