Just purchased my second Vibe!

Post by NeptuneRetrograde »

Hello all. I decided to get registered finally. Back in 2007 my wife needed a new car and she decided on a 2006 Pontiac Vibe (AWD/Stealth). We loved it from day one and have taken it on many a trip. Just this last week we purchased a second one for me ('06 FWD/Neptune). We got the title for the "old" one the same day we picked up the new one. She a real peach. Our AWD has just of 60,000 miles and the "new" girl has just 29,000! I don't plan on any huge mods. (Anyone know where I can get a cargo security shade for an '06?)

I just looked on ebay and found two cargo shades almost instantly. Just look up Pontiac Vibe cargo and you should find it!

Welcome from another two Vibe owner! I bought my son's 06 back in 08, and when I needed a new daily driver, a new Vibe was on the short list! The cargo shade for my 2010 was the first thing I bought for mine too. Found it on ebay. Good luck with them both!

Good luck with them both!Is that cargo cover solid? $80 + shipping seems a lot. Seems you could make one out of fabric for a lot less.I assume the cargo cover was not included in 2009 - I have never looked where the spare is to see if it might be there.OOPS! Should have read the eBay description - wonder if the Toyota Part is less.Up for sale is a Genuine GM Cargo Security Shade for a 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe. Keep the cargo area of your Vibe under wraps with this black fabric shade. It Attaches with four corner bungee cords and folds or rolls for easy storage. One year GM Factory Warranty. GM Part# 19171208.

Jake,The one I got is the fold up grey fabric one that comes in a pouch. It was $33 plus $10 shipping. It works good enough for me and can be easily folded up when I don't need it.http://www.ebay.com/itm/260919361685Here is another one still available:http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-2...18664

One of the positive things about my old PT Cruiser was the hard sturdy cargo cover. You could actually put a lot of weight on top of it. I actually used that one. I never used the soft cargo cover that came standard with my 2003 Vibe so I don't think I will spend $40 on another one like it. The PT also came with tinted glass in the Touring and Limited trim levels.
