Looking for cargo cover thing.

[Xelkos]

There is slots on each side of the cargo area of my 1998 Esteem GLX Wagon. Looks like one of them things that acts like an old fashion rolling window blind would go there. But this one I would be able to be pulled out and locked to cover the cargo area.

What is this thing called, a "retractable soft security panel"?
Where can I get one??

I'm one of those types that if it's supposed to be there, I want it there.

I looked in my manual, it's called a "luggage compartment cover."

Ah, found one on ebay:
eBay Motors: 98-02 Suzuki Esteem SW Cargo Cover Privacy Shade OEM (item 140139482935 end time Jul-24-07 18:29:38 PDT)

And it's gone, off to France apparently.

Yeah, it's a late post. Reason why I didn't get it, was with the crazy shipping method, would of cost $50 total. The seller would not ship via UPS, which I thought was very odd for a wrecking yard.

Other option would be is to try various types from a wrecking yard. With all the cargo covers out there, should be something that could fit.



I took some measurements, will get either some hardwood dowels or metal rods and some fabric, and sew some home-made ones instead.
