Where to buy the flat load floor?

Hi,

I'm from Brazil and all the CMs here are 5 seated without flat load floor.

I'm looking for a place to buy the flat load floor from Internet, because I can't find it in any dealer in Brazir, or when I find it they want to charge me usd 2000,00

Thanks

The price you have been quoted isn't much more than what I have been quoted in Norway to convert my non flat load floor to a flat load floor, to make the conversion the dealer has to install a completely new boot liner, it's not just a case of buying the floor and putting it in.

All indications are that trying to add it on is a total dor na bunda. Lots of parts and brackets that need to be installed and alterations to the liner. Some people have had success with do-it-yourself projects. Check the many, many posts for suggestions.

Good luck!

In the US we have a lip so to get something to cover the boot well when the divider is up I cut a piece of 3/8" plywood and glued an old fleece blanket to both sides.

Works great.

If I did not have the lip I would measure and cut a piece of plywood and attach legs where best to sit on the well bottom. For access just list and plop with a dowell.

Try Prestige MINI in Mahwah/Ramsey NJ. Angelo is the internet salesman and I believe they have an eBay store.

Thank you all!

I'll try first the DIY approach. If it didn't work, I'll go to eBay.
