Rails to create a car organiser

[Llarius]

Hi,

I appreciate this is not the car section, but am not looking for the responses that I have read on other forums which say go to the dealer and buy the parts as they are expensive and I am wondering if there are parts that are used in other trades that could do the same thing!

I have an Insignia Estate and it has the ability to take a couple of rails that you can attach hooks and nets to in order to keep the boot tidy and things in their place. The official name is the FlexOrganiser.

I've attached a picture where you can see the rails and how they can be used. I'm just trying to find something similar that could be fitted into the place of the rails as they cost a fortune from Vauxhall, if you can get them.

You can see the range of accessories for the rails here - http://www.vauxhall-accessories.com/Insignia-FlexOrganiser

Any ideas/suggestions? Ideally I'd like something that has similar flexibility with attachments so I can vary the use of the boot - we have a dog and I travel abroad a lot with work, so keeping the boot tidy would be great! Thanks.

Thanks - they look like the right sort of thing. I couldn't think of what I should looking for when Googling earlier. Stupid I know, but my mind was completely blank on what to search for. Will have a look.
