X5 Accessories Advice Needed

Hi all. Just received an email from my dealer and my new X5 will be delivered next month. I am wondering if anyone has a good website for two accessories that I want to purchase for the new ride. First, I am looking for good quality, heavy duty mats for front, rear and cargo area that are specifically made for the X5. Next, I am looking for a cargo area screen/ fence to keep my German Shepherd in the back. Suggestions?

You should ask your dealer to throw them in for free. I got free mats, and a rear seat/cargo cover

If dealer does not give you free mats, then checkout mats.com. They have made to fit mats.

Unfortunately, it does not quite work like that. I am buying my X5 through a special program for diplomatic sales and not through a "dealer" in the sense that you are use to in the States.

I did some searching online at autoparts/ accessory vendors and found exactly what I am looking for in way of high quality rubber cargo mat (even covers the back of the passenger seats when they are folded down), BUT it is only certified for up to 2007. Does anyone know if there was a change to the cargo area configuration for 2008?

There were no changes in that area between model years.

Sabot, I placed the BMW tray in the back for my GSDs - it is great for muddy feat, and the tray can easily cleaned. Only problem it gets slippery, so place some rubber lining on the inside which you can hose down.
Also get the cargo net - it will protect you boys if you have to stop suddenly, otherwise you'll fnd your best friend sitting next to you unexpectantly!
