Question Black rubber mat for trunk

Hi,
I remember having seen a black rubber mat for the trunk that prevents the original from getting dirty and things from moving around everywhere while driving. They were of the same material as the all weather mats are.

Does anybody have an idea where to get them?

Thanks
Michael

Trunk Mats

Go to the following website. They have very good mats that fit perfectly and have a 2" high lip all the way around to contain liquid spills.

You are right. I have carried my outboard motor for my dinghy in the trunk with no worries about leaking oil or gasoline (other than the obvious concerns)

Another vote for the weathertech.com mats. You can use your trunk to carry most anything without damaging the original mat.

Would be exactly what I was looking for BUT...

I have a E-220CDI which shouldn't be a problem, the E-320 or E-500 trunks are the same I guess. But on their website it says WITHOUT Navigation System - my car is WITH Navigation System so they won't fit or what?

Maybe you can stop at a dealer in your area and look in the trunk of an E-Class w/o NAV and see what, if anything, is different.

the works.
