    Rear Cargo Carpet/Mat

    A good auto trim shop should be able to make a set of mats for you. They take automotive carpet,sew it to a rubber mat for backing, then bind the edges together. You can even get the carpet embroidered with a VX logo. The downside is the expense. Any custom work like this is likely to cost hundreds of dollars. The chance that some aftermarket MFGs make a back carpet for the few people who remove their seat is unlikely.
    I have removed my back seat [and am trying to sell it] and am contemplating making a mat set as described. I have removed the seatbelts and all seat related hardware. I am also looking at boxing in the rear foot well area and creating a hidden storage while leveling out the floor. I have many projects going for my VX at present and when and if I ever do this I post pix.

    Seems that the practicality you liked for your Home Depot run would be ill-served by a carpet "mat" - as janodes indicates above it will likely be expensive and wear out fairly quickly depending on how often you use it for cargo.

    Most all-weather mat companies offer matching mats for the cargo, rear seat, and front seat areas. The Hexomat material that I mentioned earlier can also be purchased for the front seats so everything would match front to back.

    Just my $.02.

    That's the truth if I ever heard it.
