Rear Hatch cargo cover Well I bought my ti 3wks ago and it didn't have the cargo cover. I manage to locate one and the seller is asking $80 shipped. I was planning on making one, but now I'm wondering if I should just fork over $80. So for the people who actually have one, do you guys think it's worth $80. BTW, my local dealer says it's $325. |
If you're talking about the parcel shelf (#1 in the diagram below), Tischer sells it brand new here (beige) for $119.22+ http://realoem.com/bmw/diagrams/x/p/1.png |
IM LOOKING THE SAME PART .. |
SOMEBODY LET ME KNOW IF HAVE SOME EXTRA SHELF ANY COLOR.. |
Depends what kind of condition it's in. Sometimes the lock pins will break or the hooks connected to the string are broken. I got mine for 40 to the door..but it's not perfect. |
NICE!! i just want put something there . the price is good too.. |
Thanks Zoner, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I requested pics of the one I located, but I'm not sure what condition it's in. I'm just wondering if it's a piece worth $80 or not. FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ONE: If you had to replace yours, would you spend $80+ to buy another one? |
i dont have any one i get the car without that part .. i need that.. |
I just bought a new OEM one since trying to find a good condition black one was a hassle. Obv if i found a nice used one for 80 i would have taken it. |

me too 80$ sounds decent price.. |
I think that even at $120, it's a part that I would install since it prevents things in the 'trunk' from not being visible through the window and also helps reduce road noise from the rear area. That said, I have a spare one that I'd be willing to part with but shipping might cost a bit (it's not a small item). |
how much u want for urs?> and shipping to 11103? |
I'd get one if it was missing from the car. The only time I wouldn't is if the car was striped down for racing. |
I picked one up from Bavarian recycling for $75. It was faded tan in great shape. Pins and lift cords intact. I fabric painted it gray. Anyone have a pic of the shelf for the black interior? I'm curious if it was black or dark grey. http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/p...i/DSC02457.jpg http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/p...i/DSC02482.jpg I may go with Black as the color I did was a lighter grey. The grey I painted looks too light with the rest of the interior. (bad pic...) Thanks! :cool: |

blackBMWs, Thanks for the photo of your painted shelf. You appear to have produced a nice, uniform result. What do you think of the Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric product after using it? My shelf is identified by BMW as "dark grey", but in its faded condition, it actually has a bluish-grey appearance. I've considered doing something to restore it, and now that I've seen your result I will see if Dupli-Color has an appropriate shade of grey. |
I have used Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric product before on my cargo shelf and it turned out wonderful, I would have to say it looks brand new. I painted mine black |
i'm happy with the result. I've used it in the past and it turns out well and is reasonable durable. I've painted higher contact spots like the center console armreat on my Bronco and it held up for years until I sold the truck. For the ti shelf, it took two cans, one for each side. I stayed off about 8"-10" in continious strokes off edge to off edge. I have no issue with the paint or texture, it may be a little lighter than I ultimately want. I'm taking care of other car items then go back and see how I like it. BTW, the first photo is of the top before and the bottom is after. I should take another after shot under the same lighting conditions to get a good comparison shot. Cheers! :cool: |
In case anyone cannot find one in the US. Tischer would lilely be cheaper after U.K. shipping, but just in case anyone's interested... I typically ask the sellers if they are willing to ship to the US and if so, how much to my zipcode. A couple of times, I have been plesantly supprized at the cost for a rarer part. Most times, it's expensive... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E36-3-...item3a71d033ac Cheers! :cool: |
UPS quoted me $65 to ship one across the country- surely it would be substantially more to ship one across the pond. |
They are only 120 new + shipping from tischer, I wouldn't even bother trying to get a used one unless it was local. |

I finally went ahead and ordered one from Tischer |
My Package Tray arrived today from Tischer and I'm very pleased. It's well wotrth the $143 I paid for it |
I repainted the (top only) of mine with standard semi-gloss black Rust-Oleum. Took about a week (thin coat, dry, thin coat dry overnight, three times for six dry coats) and it looks as good as new. I pulled the cord ends out of the tray, back masked the edges and went for it. It really look just like a new one. Note (to to those painting them) that the underside has a different 'sheen' to the material than the top does. I would not paint it unless I had to. And to answer the earlier question: black interiors have a black tray that typically fades to purple (as mine did) in a few years. |

It might work in a pinch... :cool: |

Mine unfortunately has many scratch marks from what I would guess the PO's dog taking naps up there. The new paint didn't cover those up. |
Does anyone know where I could get new ledges that actually hold the hatch cover? Mine are broke and the cover slides off when i open my hatch. |

I think I have everything you need- I'm headed out of town tomorrow and will be gone all weekend, but send me a PM and maybe we can meet up sometime next week... |
