Rubber boot mat question

Tried to find the answer to this but no luck. Pics were unrevealing...

Does anyone have the rubber boot liner/mat?

I am thinking of getting it but pics online seem to suggest that it occludes the little attachment points for the cargo nets. I actually like the side ones and would like to continue using them with the rubber boot liner.

Anyone have any info on this & whether the rubber boot mat makes using the cargo nets impossible?

At least for mine, on a Cabrio, the cargo net attach points are cut out of the boot mat. So I would guess that the cargo net is still a go. I use the attach points for bungee cords through my detailing bag so it doesn't slide around.

there are cutouts for the attachment points. Its very well made and fits perfectly. Hope this helps.
The straps hanging are the pullups for bringing the seat backs upright after lowering. That was a big PIA in my 04 so I bought these. They are very helpful even though I don't lower the seats often.

There are thin rubber cutouts for the net attachment points although I don't use the nets. I also got the mat extenders for over the seats when they are folded because I usually have them down since I carry larger things back there. I got mine from MiniMania.

Yes, all of the boot trays have the cutouts for the cargo net eyes.

Does anyone know the dimensions on this boot insert? I am considering one for my car if my tool case will fit it. It looks like there is a divider built into it.

The two sections are 8x12.5 ( small ) and 27x12.5 ( large ). Total would be 35x12.5. This is the flat part before they start to curve at the edges. The divider is rubber and could be trimmed so the base is flat all the way across.
