Default Question about the cargo cover for the Scion xB

Is the cargo cover for the xB retractable like the one in the xA? Every description I have read is very vague. Thanks for the help.

there are two covers...
a soft cover that clips to the 4 hooks on the sides.

then a hard cover that also goes to the 4 hooks, but it is supported by to rods.

Wow. Thanks. I really like that. That's much better than the hammock they sold me. It just about holds a loaf of bread, I guess they thought our toasters needed a hammock to hold bread???

I have to add that one to my XB project list.

Its not that bad, but its hard as hell to take off and put on. I wish the fastening system was different.

I'd rather throw a quilt or something over my goods in the back than use the Scion soft cover. What a piece of crap. Not worth the $30 they want for it. The quality just isn't OEM... just like the hatch carpeted mat that fits SO great. Grrrr...

Default Made me one also

This thread got me interested. Here is my creation from this AM. Made from 1/4" plywood and wrapped in grey felt. I used spray adhesive to attach it and was able to stretch around the corners for a good tight fit.

It's just sitting on the little folded out clips.
