Question Why Does the US Get Cheated on RX Accessories?

Elsewhere in the world there are better and more choices of RX accessories. Here's what's available in the UK: UK Lexus RX and then click on "Accessories".

I'd like to purchase the headrest docking station, coat hangar and vertical net.

Canadian models get the availability of the Lexus dashcam and better all weather cargo liners that cover the back seat as well.

But US is probably the only country beside japan that Lexus let you customize with standalone options.
Every RX is AWD in Canada.
No interior colour option ( whatever comes with exterior colour)
You want 360 Camera, you pay 80k for the top of the line model.
Everything is bundled and prebuilt.

The accessories, you can order online.
You can’t build your Lexus like GM in Canada or many other countries.

As for the cargo net, the OEM I got from Lexus that comes with a zippered bag can be used either vertical or horizontal. Not really sure why the need for both or separate nets.

I have the zippered pouch net that only secures to the attachment points at the beginning of the cargo space. Some refer to it as the "envelope" net, but mine will not lay horizontal and hold anything.
