Easy trunk cargo net
Easy trunk cargo net
The Nissan 350Z Cargo / Convenience Net came, $29.95 plus 7.95 shipping, on eBay.
After reading how difficult and expensive it is for the Acura dealer to install a factory net in the TSX, I was relieved to see that this one had instructions. Unfortunately, they are in Japanese. I taped them to the trunk lip. I could understand them enough to get the net installed.
After I got the third clip attached to the existing D ring, I could pretty well see where they were going with the instructions. Last clip was cake.
Note that the net is an envelope; you can put things under it or in it. Not quite as handy as on my '00 3.2TL, which forms a basket, but certainly an improvement in usefulness, cost and ease of installation over the Acura net.

Thanks Dan on how to post pictures. It only took me an hour to figure it out, simple now.

Quick cargo net
I believe that it is easier because the installation took 30 seconds, no tools.
I concede that it is about $10 more expensive than the Acura net is on eBay. The eBay price for the 350Z net is about the same price as the list price of the Acura net from the Acura dealer (cash and carry). There is delivery from eBay versus driving to the dealer. A trip to my dealer is 70 miles, so the UPS charge is less than driving there; though going up to the dealer to get a part is a good excuse to drive the car.

Of course there are lots of other trunk cargo nets on eBay and other sources, too. This solution is quick, easy, relatively cheap (with respect to an Acura dealer installed Acura net). The 350Z net is deluxe and seems well made and durable. Here's a link to other eBay nets.

Pretty much you pay your money and take your pick.
The net was easy to install; writing my post and getting the pictures attached to my post is what took so much time. However, someone will probably make a comment that it doesn't take long to post either. And, it doesn't take me long now.

The big advantage of the factory net is the ability to hold items upright either in the net or between it and the rear opening. I use the Acura net in conjunction with 4 bungees (bottom & sides.) That works great in holding grocery bags upright or odd-shaped items securely in place between the cords, net, sides and back of the trunk.
