Good source for accessories besides dealer (eg cargo cover)

Has anyone found a cargo cover online for less than $100? It is a flimsy piece of plastic I can't believe they charge $130 for these things.

It's currently down, but if you go to http://parts.nissanusa.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; you get links to various area dealers (who set the price) when you choose a part or accessory. When you click on each dealer it will give you the price. Unfortunately you do not see the price until you click on the dealer link.

Note that shipping is not included in the quote but provided when you go to checkout, so keep that in mind. Some, but not all, dealers will honor the web price if you go there and pick up the item yourself.

Unfortunately you're probably not going to find that papier-mâché cargo cover for that much cheaper than MSRP unless it's used or a non-factory accessory.

I'd give http://www.courtesyparts.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; a call/email. But, it likely won't be below $100.

I am seriously considering making one myself (cardboard with felt glue on?), because this is absolutely ridiculous gouging. I have a gas hatchback and it came with a cargo cover. Very silly to not include an accessory that probably cost them 2 cents to make!

If you've felt the OEM cargo cover, you'd conclude that it costs a lot more than 2 cents to make.

That said, it is a rather pricey and it's unfortunate it's not standard unless you go for the SL trim.
