Get what you pay for

I could be wrong if the cargo net offered by the 370Zsource matches the ones available from dealerships but the one offered for $29.95 (on 370Zsource) is not sized well for the space. The net is way too big width wise and very generic (no Z on it). I would recommend a no buy on this cheap little addition.

This could just be me but if anyone else has bought one......what was your impression?

I bought the one from the dealership yesterday (I had a $25 gift card from them), and it still cost me north of $10. Anyways, the NikonFM described the net from 370Zsource is the same description that I would give to the net I got from the dealership. It's the right width, but it seems about a half-inch or an one inch too long. Also, generic, no Z on it.

Having said that. I've used it for the last few days, and I always have various stuff (not too much, but stuff) in the car. So far, I am actually very pleased with the net. I think the extra length of the net is there so that when you put big/bulky stuff in it, the net can stretch better.

Okay. I feel a little better about the item then. Thanks

Big difference!

Slide 3/3 shows the US net is smaller but the fit is pretty tight. My net has about 6-8 inches of loose material.

I'm not a fan of it strapping around the strut brace :\
