Default missing cargo net

i just realized that i have no cargo net... i went to look at the sticker in my files, and it doesn't say it came with one. is this true for all GS's or 430's that were delivered in march? because if you build your GS on lexus.com it has the preferred accessory package. my sticker doesn't show that, but has the trunk mat and wheel looks listed separately. MSRP was $58,275.00, which is different from the loaded 430 on lexus.com . . . strange . . .

in fact, i don't think i have cargo net hooks in the trunk! btw, it took me two months to notice this, so i can live without it, but just wanted to know if any of you didn't get nets either?

I took delivery of my GS430 in April. I have the hooks in my trunk, but no net... although I haven't looked for it closely (maybe it's under the spare tire?).

I do have the side strap (on the right side of the trunk). Looks like the hooks are in a good position to hold things in place and the net would be very beneficial.

Let me know if the net is hidden somewhere...

I got mine when I picked up the car at the dealer -- it was already installed so I didn't have to go find it.. I *thought* they were only doing that for some deals and not others? Might be wrong on that...

I didn't realize until I got home that it was missing on my GS300AWD. There weren't any hooks in the trunk and it wasn't on my window sticker, however my salesman had written it on the bill of sale. So they put it in for me at 1000 mile personalization setup. Evidently it was not included in the package.

My cargo net came with the 'Preferred Accessory Package' that's the way it reads on the sticker. It also includes Trunk Mat and Wheel Locks which adds $194 to the MSRP.

Mine came with the cargo net as part of the option Bigzip mentioned. Shame they don't all have it. I think it is well designed and very handy. I thought I saw it on the Accesories listed on the website.

Mine came with the my purchase. I got the ML/NAV option and just asked the dealer to "HOOK ME UP" with mats, cargo net and stuff. Got the car delivered and all was there.
