I know I can buy a custome cargo mat for the rear hatch area, but does anyone have any suggestions for making one? I was just gonna buy some rubber floor mats made for a truck and throw a couple of them in the rear, but is there a better method?

 

There wouldbe no lip to catch water, but you can just buy 2 yards of industrial rubber floor mat and cut it to shape.

 

Here are some pics from another thread on what I did to ensure my rear cargo area was well protected from a wet puppy, garden supplies, etc. I did a two step process to make it easier to clean.
Sorry but I don't know how to link to a thread - real amateur here - hope this works

Thanks for the link. I'll try some thing on my day off and see how it goes. I'll post the results if I do anything.

 

This is what I istalled on my Fit. It gives the dimensions. It is great for the price...

That one for 15 bux looks nice. Looks like it could be sliced down to custom size with a box cutter or something. Thanks!

 

Don't even have to do that. it FITs just fine and it is very thick. You'll like it
