Ok so its not really a mod, but very useful !


Simple non-slip mats ... means my sh!t will not be "going places" in the boot / trunk

Nice! I just flip the OEM mats since it has rubber lining ... and then use the strap net to hold things down

not a bad idea either !

These have been very very good in the Mercedes ML we have so I just had to get some for the 5er. I dont really put much in the boot so when I do, it just keeps flying all over the place. Very annoying. This mate will really grip any item ... and not wear out over time (The ML has had it in there for months now)

It looks anything but cheap.
Dont have time to mess around with stretch straps. I just bung whatever into the boot and its sorted ... can't ask for anything more
