With the raised cargo bed (to accomodate the Adblue tank) on 2009 TDI Touareg, has anyone tried fitting in the WeatherTech Liners Cargo Mat or any other mat? With cargo mats, can you still use the hooks on the cargo bed to attach a cargo net?
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions!The gorilla gear mat is stiffer than the weathertech mat, so it will retain its shape better.
the hexomat version is nice in that you can trim it to fit.
The hatch will close with that mat for I have it in mine. It did not close at first, but now is molded to the point it is not an issue. You won't find a mat that will work exact since one has not been made for that cargo area yet. I would be willing to bet no one ever bothers to make one either given the number of TDI's out there compared to the cost to tool up for it. I don't think it would be cost effective for a company to invest in a TDI specific mat.Be careful. I ordered the all-weather mat for the cayenne and it didn't fit my tdi treg. The raised floor caused the mat to hit the back hatch and it wouldn't shut. I ended up just getting the reversible cayenne mat to put in the back.
Still looking for the "perfect" mat for the TDI, but have yet to find it.
You're right about that...I talked to Weathertech and Weathertech is not going to re-evaluate the small changes in the trunk of the TDI Touareg vs what they have for it since 2004...They claim it fits fine.The hatch will close with that mat for I have it in mine. It did not close at first, but now is molded to the point it is not an issue. You won't find a mat that will work exact since one has not been made for that cargo area yet.

Still waiting on mine to arrive. Never even gave it a second thought that the pee squirter hump would even be an issue. Anxious to see how/if mine fits . . .:shock:Actually, I have the weathertech and have to agree with them. There's a slight overhang in the mat where the raised deck tapers down. But the mat has enough stability to maintain its shape.
mscot, any chnace we can get some pics of the Gorilla Gear mat in the new TDi T2?I put the gorilla mat in today and it actually fits perfectly. I'll post pics later on.
No I don't, but if I think about it I will take some for you.Yeti, do you have pics of the Cayenne mat on the TDi?
mscot, how do those 4 'pop out' pieces stay in place?yeti, it's a thick rubber with a carpeted exterior. i've only had snowboards/boots in the back so other than dirty snow i really can't say. but, it doesn't leak through the bottom.
it may leak at those 4 pop-out pieces of plastic that you can run the tie downs through but i haven't come across that yet. like i said, though, nothing but ski gear in the back that would cause a problem anyway.
