I'm looking at kitting out my boot so it looks nice and respectable so I can open the boot at car shows to show off the sub..
I saw a boot lining kit on eBay once and never seen another.
Anyone got links to kits you can buy?
Or how to make a nice carpeted one?
I want it to be able to be removed easily so I can get to my spare and the battery. And want the tank hidden and a cover of some sort over the boot lid!

Cheers, Rhys

The uk dudes have some designs available on the Internet. Takes a bit of winding round, but you'll eventually find the design for it. They also have centre console, dash, underseat speaker board, etc

Might not be quite what you have in mind, but I fitted one of the boot lid of my car, with very good results:

In case you aren't aware these are available from local Mini parts suppliers as Cooper S replacements.

I can vouch for optimise automotive, really good fit, decent carpet, and no screw holes, postage was a little steep but you are posting wood..

I asked optimise about international shipping a few months back and they said they could not post it internationally because of their own insurance blah blah. Did something change perhaps?
