Just bought one of these expecting them to be good enough for general stuff kept in boot (ITs a bootliner).

By the picture they look more rubber than foam.
Arrived yesterday and to my surprise its made out of very light foam.
Think foam that is used for packaging used to protect goods in transit and you will get an idea of what it is made from.

Very dissapointed as it cost almost €60 for a piece of foam that to be honest doesnt even fit as snuggly as you would expect. :( :wtf: :keule:
 
Well wish I knew that before I cut bits off it to make it fit good!
*****!

Is that not a Genuine part?
Am glad for the warning as keep seeing bootliners on Ebay (both rubber and plastic types) and kept thinking that the VagParts one would surely be better.....apparently not it seems!
Shame you cut it as I'm sure they would have taken it back, they are a good supplier and have been really helpful when I've dealt with them before......
 
I mainly posted it here to warn anyone against buying it.
Glad to be of assistance Nessy
 
If it's the boot liner shown here: http://tinyurl.com/tv4w8 it says 'Light weight foam rubber'.

I bought a boot liner for my A4 saloon from www.roofbox.co.uk
It's a harder, plastic type so difficult to pierce if you carry sharp objects (garden tools in our case).

Their code is Code: JV20-1434. It needed to be trimmed to make holes for the four luggage loops but otherwise fits very well.

It has a hard surface so bags etc. slide about if you don't have a luggage net.
 
yep, those rigid plastic load liners are the way to go. Contain spills well, and general garden centre type delivery abuse.

Just remember to take it out before you take the dogs anywhere though, unless they're any good at ice skating ;)
