Just got an e-mail that my order was canceled!!! Whats up with that?? I was the second or third to order. Looks like it was canceled by Amazon. Can't figure it out. Looks like a screw-up.

My windows are tinted, plus I keep a black towel in the trunk. It's more for when I'm dirty, to protect the seat, but it also works to cover things up. With the tint and towel you can't really see anything.

It works no doubt, but nobody will give you a lot more than what you paid for the tint.
I have tint as well and that stops people stealing my cargo cover.

Just got off the phone with Chrysler that was selling them on Amazon. She said that they are all on indefinite back order and they never had any to sell. Same with the rear panels. Never had them. I hope that she is wrong and some of you guys get yours. As for me, the search continues.

For all intents and purposes they are no longer to be found.

Back in December 2008 I got one of the last listed on the continent wide parts list, there were three left after me and one of them was damaged. A few were imported from the UK and after that ..... nothing.


The same basic situation applies to the panels .... all gone.

Interesting.... All gone or just not found?? When a part number is removed from Chryslers system, is it assumed discontinued, or just in other hands? Where was the luggage hiding all these years?? I would think that a manufacturer would have to make quite a few to make it worth tooling up for. Same kind of thing happened with old Jeep parts. Guys went in and bought up all NOS parts from dealers that went out of Busisness and parts later started to show up. I guess we can only hope!!

Mine came from the UK and after removing must be re- installed from the right side first!

Tint works great, 20 is dark enough. An ugly unit hanging over the trunk when closed is an eye sore to me. Im keeping my cargo cover in the box where it looks best.

Looks good, most hatches come with those stock, it's a shame Chrysler left them out and then tried to see if they can 'push' them later on

Hi Hi Hi!

I just came across this thread from back in December, since I am still wishing for one of these Cargo Covers myself!

Actually, my coupe HAS the mounting hardware installed, the removable cover part may be sitting in someone's garage. So just want to raise my hand and say "me too" if another chance comes up.

Also share the thought that the luggage which showed up a few months ago went through a distinct distribution channel, not the normal Mopar Accessory logistics. These covers (and Humidors, probably) were more in the normal Mopar supply chain, so less likely to go hiding unnoticed for 5+ years. Although we can still hope.

Clint

What you saw was a cheap cover that did not roll up, sorry.

Yes, it was a different, cheaper version. You're right that it did not roll up. I am happy with my window tint, though.

I have the OEM cargo cover and a tint, the tint stops envious Crossfire owners seeing my cover and stealing it. LOL
At the prices that these covers go for it is the most expensive thing I put in my trunk.

Is this Clint 'the voice'? I'm guessing it is.

It would be worth investigating if the Dodge Magnum cargo cover would fit in the bracket you have. It should be about the correct size. Even if it did not fit between the brackets, try it for length anyway to check if it will cover the trunk OK. The brackets could be moved. The assembly has a button so the end **** compresses in to fit between the brackets. The rod is 6" away from the end, but that could be moved if required.
Go to a dealer and look for a Magnum with the cover and ask to trial fit it in yours, they cost about $120 for the Magnum, 1/3 the price of the Crossfire cargo cover when you could get them.
You would be a forum hero if you found it would fit, and so would I be as it was my idea. LOL Just think your name in lights.

I did a thread on modifying the Magnum cover some time back and I always thought it could be done but I got my cover and nobody carried the torch after that.
