is there a nice roll up cargo cover?

I checked out the 09 cargo cover and have decided I'd rather have a retractable one then the strings and things

thanks,
mj

I have been looking for the same thing. So far I have not found anything, but hopefully one will become available soon.

That is on the list of things to do. Hopefully the tinting will be dark enough to hide the contents in the back.

yah if you get a 30% or less it will be dark enough for your cargo.

after getting the factory cargo tray flappy thingie for my GE8, i was like
wtf, should've just tinted the windows... i too thought it would be the
roll-up type like my GD.. bad move by Honda. plus you have to slide
the cargo tray in a very precise angle otherwise it wont go in....and who
the hell wants to be standing out there in the rain/cold/dark trying to
get some frikken cargo tray to slide in?

i still havent installed the 5 buttons for the rear seat backs cause it
came with no template and my first attempt failed in the blizzard. LOL

I have all my windows tinted 35% and it is just dark enough you cannot see in the back....esp. down in the cargo area unless you really really try and see in (face planted against the window).

I too recommend just tinting the windows 30% or less to be safe.

I would have to disagree with the 30% tint thing. From experience, I feel that 10% is just enough for someone to have to "face plant" against the windshield in order to see what's inside your vehicle.

It's not everyone who wants tints. A simple cover would be nice but I haven't found any. I think I'll try to build something in the summer as it's -20 right now.

My 35% tint does a good job of hiding objects that are not bright or white. But then again, the only things I have back there are grocery bags and I don't leave them in there long. I put them in, drive home and take them out, lol. Plus, maybe some of you forget...the rear magic seats have storage underneath them. You can hide big bags or small suitcases under them in case you don't want to put them in the cargo area.
