Default New Canvasback cargo protection

Ok guys, I know everyone has their own preference for cargo area protection. Sometimes my LX really looks like a 'truck' in the cargo area and I needed more protection on the seats and sides. I do woodturning and can't seem to pass up a log here and there so sometimes it get added to the mix in the back along with a chainsaw, etc.

If you have any questions or comments Suzanne Shrader at Canvasback did an awesome job. She got a lot of measurements so she is well equipped for what you need on an LX.
(www.Canvasback.com 952-426-9490)

The fit is perfect and very functional. Just vacuum and/or wipe with a damp cloth. Sorry I didn't smooth out the wrinkles before the photo. I was a little to quick to snap a pic after the install. The cargo mat is from my 03 LX and at this time I plan to keep it since it works fine.

Anyway, hope this is of some use for someone viewing. If not maybe you didn't waste a clik

Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Suzanne is a pleasure to work with and was quick with the turnaround time for a custom made product.

We filled the cargo area with logs all the way to the top of the 3rd row seats and headed to John C Campbell Folk School for a weeks worth of wood turning this week. Not a scratch on the interior from the logs and the canvas just brushed off with a rag.

Great product for our needs

Just ordered a set from Suzanne.

No tailgate cover, but did have her add pockets to 3rd row covers. Should be interesting to see how she does them.

Actually was a second thought, better call her back. Just kept thinking of all that empty space and the lack of cubby holes on the 200 series vs the 100 I also have.

We bounced around some ideas and she was going to think about it.

Probably be a large pocket, guessetted on the left, and two smaller pockets on the right. Most likely using webbing with velcro to allow for adjustable closure.

Guess you could make the case for also putting them on the back of the 2nd Row seats.

Anyway, hope to have them late next week and we'll post some photos of the pockets, as the rest of it should look like the original photos on here.

Probably should have just pulled the 3rd rows seats. ;-) As far as storage management goes, I'm still waiting to see a set of these in a LX570, if someone wants to convince the vendor to make it. ;-)

Default Cover with pockets


got my set from Suzanne. Just as nice as DRich described and showed. I didn't do the tailgate, but did add the floor and pockets to the 3rd row seats.

Will probably take seats out, but make nice covers or might sell them.










One large pocket








Two vertical pockets.

Why headrest do not have cover? Also notice some plastic is still uncovered. I like the looks, but key components are not protected. Packets were great idea.

The Canvasback site shows the full setup with the pieces that cover the headrests and the back plastic sides. There are other pieces that protect the areas.
