Default 1994 LS400 Trunk Mat???

Hi all

When i purchased my ls400 all it had in the trunk was a trunk mat but nothing underneath it supporting the mat. Just a spare tire. So if i took off the mat, and took out the tire, all i see is white metal.

Can anyone direct me to what it is that provides support for the trunk mat? I was using cardboard lol. I have been searching to no avail. Even on ebay

There is a foldable trunk lininig. Each section has wood or stiff carboard inside of it . The carpet goes on top of that. At least on my '92

I saw that i do have the folding stiff cardboard part. I am actually missing the trunk mat.

The stiff cardboard part alone is not enough to hold any real amount of weight up, is there anything below the stuff cardboard foldable mat that supports it??

no worries bro,

Our lot out here has a few LSs at a time.

Have you guys checked out http://bananags.grantham-international.com/ ?

Scroll to aluminum bar in trunk. Super cheap and easy. We can integrate to the LS.
