    Hello everyone, does anybody have the Cargo Tonneau cover with the rolling blind that comes with the Prime Advanced for sale?

    I’m located in Burbank, CA near Los Angeles. I’m mobile and I also don’t mind it shipped.

    Thanks!

    Does it fit on Premium and Plus trim without any mod?

    Hey Diemaster, I messaged you.

    I believe I have to make some modification but I’m sure I can find a way to do it. Do you have one by any chance that you’re willing to sell?

    No, my Prime is Premium trim as well. At first, I thought the black penny hose cover that came with Premium (and with Plus also) was going to be useless. But as it turned out, I like it better than the hard Tonneau cover I had on my previous Gen3 Prius which I think is similar to the one you are looking for. Flexible material allows me to store large bulky item in the cargo area and still cover it. It looks cheap, but it turned out to be more functional than the hard tonneau which I hardly ever used in my previous Prius.

    Yeah! Actually I’m still debating myself. I also had a question about the set up of the soft cover Tonneau cover. I don’t know if I did it right. Attached to this message are pics. What do you think?

    Yap, that's the way I strapped mine. It rises with the hatch when you open, and come down when you close it. You lose the rear view through lower window of the hutch door, but that does not bother me. Actually, I prefer not to have to look through the lower glass anyway.

    I think this picture I attached to this message is the proper set up for it because both upper and lower straps are linear when the trunk door is completely open and you can still see the lower window of the hutch door, but the height was too low for me when I was reaching to the deepest part of the trunk forcing me to bend my side ways to get to the deepest part of the trunk. I’m not tall either. I’m only 5’ 9”.

    OK, I see what you mean. Your first photo had both lines attached to the same hook? Yes, I have mine hooked one cord to the top on the door, and other cord on the bottom to the side of the trunk. But with that connection, I still can not see through the lower glass. Maybe I have mine set up up-side down? I have to examine it later.

    Yep, initially I had it hooked “upside down” and I wasn’t able to see through the lower glass. Even when I hooked it “properly” I didn’t like how low the cover was when the trunk door was opened and the straps on the bottom of the sides prevented me from moving items in and out from the side.

    Well, if that is the case. I will continue to use it "upside down". It works well for me.;)

    That’s nice of you, no worries. I actually prefer the flexible material now because Salamander_King’s right about how the “flexible material allows me to store large bulky item in the cargo area and still cover it. It looks cheap, but it turned out to be more functional than the hard tonneau.”

    I bought the Prime for practicality reasons than ballin’ status so I’m ok with the flexible cover for now. I wonder if you can have the flexible Cargo cover with the wheelchair in the back?

    I did what you guys did in the beginning then hooked it up the right way. The right way with the lower strap tied in helps keep it down when driving with the windows down. When the windows are down and both straps are attached to the upper, it goes flying all over the place in the back.
