Angry Pad in the trunk goes everywhere?

Does yours go everywhere too as soon as you put something in the trunk? Mine just crimples up when I put stuff in the trunk. It just can't stay put. Is there a better aftermarket pad that anyone can suggest to me?

I'm too tired to take a picture of the trunk. Here is the material I have over the stock pad,

Rubber mat

You might want to check out a home center before mail ordering this material.

THat could be a good solution. Thanks for the advice. Does anybody know of any cloth thick pads that go in the trunk of the EVO?

The only problem I have with my trunk is that my damn groceries are scattered all over the trunk when I get home from the store. And it is starting to annoy me.

Let me describe it a little more.
The cloth pad has some cushy stuff at the bottom. Then there is a thick piece of wood. The cloth part is not attached to the wood for some reason. So it slides all around. Can you guys check in your trunk and see if the cloth is attached to the hard wood part in yours?

It's not attached, but I haven't had problems with it sliding around. Why don't you try to glue it to the wood or something?

Same here, and it sounds as though you've got the same materials in your trunk as my in my OZ.

I had the same problem in my Integra. Get some Velcro as someone has already mentioned and if you can, sew it to the carpets. I'm not sure what your trunk mat is like considering I don't have an Evo (YET!!!). Some velcro's I have come across have a very sticky residue on the backside, so you may not even need to sew the velcro to your carpets. Just a helpful hint. Hope you can get your problem fixed.
