Default Spec C Boot Lining required

I'm the very proud, recent owner of a 2005 Spec C. However, the boot layout is so impractical and so I wondered if anyone knew if a boot lining was available to make this space more usable.
I'm just fed up of losing stuff under the spare wheel.

Thanks in advance for all useful replies.

you can get the standard STi boot lining for it but i mean what is the point in buying a spec c if you want to put all the STi refinements back in

Either get a new one from the dealers or get to a scrappers. Jasemac may be able to help you out. Give Scoobyclinic a call too as they often have right-offs knocking about for spares. I don't think the weight of a boot liner will completely ruin the Spec C experience.

Have to agree with this!
The entire point of the spec c is that its raw and uncompromising, in 3 years of ownership i didnt put a boot lining in, if you wanted a boot lining, you really dont have the right car for you (if you just went out and bought it becase it was fast), it defeats the object.

Couldn't agree more. Leave it as nature (or Subaru in this case ) intended.

You woose! No boot lining in mine

TX.

Edit - on a more useful note you can get a rubber mat that fits in the boot which would stop stuff rolling around. Seen some on Fleabay ...

Ive got a Rubber boot liner in mine,just stops stuff going all over the place, think it came from a estate subaru, it goes half way up the intercooler tank and protects it as well,got it at litchfields for about £50 when i got my car.

If you need a pic, let me know and i will nip out and take one.

Thanks for all the useful replies and I appreciate all of the purist concerns also.
As this is a family car and my daily driver...... believe me, this is the only weight I'll be adding other than carrying the kids around.
