G_Mossman Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I had given up hope of ever finding another one in existence. My brother has one and he is the only person I know that has it, and I only found this picture after some pretty serious Googling. So I guess my question is, why is this part so rare? (other than the fact that there are not a lot of them) P.S. I am not looking to buy one or anything, that's why this thread is here and not in the Parts Wanted section. It wont fit in my rs coupe's sad excuse for a trunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikaleda Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Probably since most people want a full size spare so they toss that to get more room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 What does this fit? Got a part number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_Mossman Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 I dont know the part number, and it doesnt fit down in where the spare goes. It sits on top of the cargo liner. Its like the way better version of those outback organizers they have in the early to mid 2000s outbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 is there a part number embossed on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I spotted it in the accessory catalog the last time I was at the dealership and the parts guy immediately told me it was NLA, no longer available. (He and I go through this a lot, and you might be surprised what is and isn't NLA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnatchedHatch Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) That doesn't quite look like the later gen Fozzie trunk organizer I'm thinking of, but either way those are very rare! A buddy of mine said he drove 2 hours to pick one up for a steal of a price, and I quote "because I've never heard of one, I had to have it". Definitely serves him well, his trunk is packed regardless. Any similar offering for my GF8? The aftermarket one I have slides around and is way too small Edited January 12, 2015 by SnatchedHatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pginter96 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) I saw one of those in a salvage yard last year, I had NO IDEA how rare those were at the time. Came home and a week or so later I saw a post about it and kicked myself in the face. Car got crushed by the time I went back. *cries inside* These are the same story with the tonnau cover things and window rain guards, The only way to find them is to scan eBay and craigslist every day, three times a day, and check the pick-a-parts. Theyre rare because they were options that very few pople chose, and the ones that chose them, the second (third/fourth/fifth/whatever) owners of the car may not have, and either thrown them out or buried them deep in the garage or shed, never to see daylight again. Its incredible to find one thats lasted 15 years or so. Ive just resorted to a milk crate strapped to the D-hooks in The back of my OBW.
