How to make the trunk more convenient in a Lada Vesta - tips

May 25, 2018 Lada.Online 61 898 5

The double luggage compartment floor of the Lada Vesta SW and Lada Vesta SW Cross (foam tray and tray organizer cover) is a convenient thing, allowing you to comfortably place things in the trunk. However, this useful option is only available for Luxe trim levels. Owners of more affordable versions of the station wagon can make a similar accessory with their own hands.

Organizer

It is not necessary to make an organizer like a standard one. In order not to take up useful space, you can make an organizer without a bottom. Using only partitions will allow you to place things up to 106 mm high under the lid (the depth of the standard organizer is 68 mm). Author of the idea: Vyatich.

• planed board 18x96x2000 mm 2pcs x 75r. = 150r.
• autocarpet PVCh-250/PVG-250 black width 1.5 m 1m x 280 rub. = 280 rub.
• self-tapping screws 4x50 - 8 pcs.
• staples for stapler 6 mm

1. We mark wooden blanks - in this case (900x83mm - 2 pieces and 440x83mm - 2 pieces).
2. We carefully cut it out so that the end is even.
3. On a long board that will be closer to the fifth door, we make beveled edges so that the board fits more tightly to the plastic upholstery of the trunk (a plane was used).
4. We place the blanks inside the trunk, check how everything fits - there should be small gaps that are compensated by the carpet.
5. If everything is in order, drill and twist with self-tapping screws.
6. Let's try it on again.
7. Round the edges and corners.
8. Next, we cover the structure with carpet - we used two strips measuring 100x23 cm and two 44x23 cm. The staples were driven into the lower end - so they are not visible.
9. We check that the organizer should fit tightly and be easily removed.

The weight of the structure is 2 kg. The mass of the foam organizer is 0.8 kg. The suitcase with the tool (435x385x106 mm) found its niche under the raised floor. The raised floor resting on this structure can withstand a load of more than 100 kg.

Organizer cover

• plywood 10 or 20 mm.
• spray glue or furniture stapler.
• carpet

1. Cut a blank from plywood according to the dimensions of the template (adjust to size by machine).
2. Stick a rubber seal along the edge of the structure.
3. Cover with carpet.

Load securing net

In all configurations of the Lada Vesta SE version, there are special brackets above the trunk floor that can be used to secure the net. The staples are located in four places, and the mesh forms a single piece so that the load does not move during movement.

To securely secure the load, it is recommended to use an additional cord with a clamp. It should run along the perimeter of the mesh and tighten it along the contour. This mesh can be used in all climatic regions not lower than -40 and not higher than +55 degrees with air humidity not exceeding 80%.

If the car is equipped with special devices on the trunk floor and a net for securing cargo, be sure to use them. It is necessary to place cargo in the luggage compartment taking into account that objects and things cannot fall into the cabin on people during a sudden stop or braking.

Raised floor for a lady

At first I didn’t like the idea of ​​​​making a false floor in the trunk of the Vesta, which is included in expensive trim levels. This is when I watched how people simply copied the factory design. Just think, there is a small space between the raised floor and the standard floor, in which you can’t really put anything. But the opportunity to organize a sleeping place by leveling the Vesta trunk floor to the level of the folded rear seats is already a worthwhile improvement. You can comfortably sleep in your car without a tent. And I decided to come up with a raised floor that is better and more useful than the standard one.

But I already bought a good rubber mat for the standard trunk floor of the Vesta... And then an idea arose - a mat! Ideally, the false floor in the trunk should be a mat - that is, flexible. Then you can make the most of the space underneath to store anything you need. But the practical implementation of a flexible and at the same time durable design is a technically very difficult task. Therefore, it was decided to come to a compromise and limit it to four sections. No sooner said than done. I ordered rectangular pieces of 15 mm plywood to size and cut out the required corners.

I really didn’t want to make a frame under the raised floor, as many people do. This is both a loss of space and a rigid division of the niche volume into sections. At the same time, you need to take into account that the spare tire that is currently lying around is a narrow stamped 15, and I plan to eventually cast it for 16 and wider. This means the height of the spare tire will increase and the frame should not rest against the spare tire. But it would be better without him at all. In the plastic of the trunk, on which the false floor rests, there are recesses that can be used under the frame (photo below). In short, it will be really needed - I’ll do it later.

The next thing I did was to study the space under the raised floor in the trunk of Vesta, in which I was going to store something I needed. The result did not cause delight. Bare primed metal, pitiful scraps of vibration and un-glued pieces of felt.

Definitely, sound insulation of the trunk is necessary. Moreover, I am removing the standard trunk floor lid, which was made with a claim for sound insulation. We need to compensate. An additional advantage will be the protective coating of the metal with a noise-insulating soft material, which will protect against scratches and prevent things from rattling.

Without fanaticism, I glued 3 sheets of 1.6 mm Comfort Mat G-Line vibration and carefully sealed the entire surface with 8 mm isolon. The result is a wonderful trunk niche.

Now you can return to making the raised floor. I was so distracted for a day of work, but I have to do it well, because it will turn out bad on its own. The final assembly of the raised floor panels was done outside the machine, since all dimensions had already been determined. First of all, I painted the plywood with a varnish similar to bitumen. I glued 4 mm isolon on the bottom for sound insulation. It adhered well to the varnished surface.

Next, I connected the sections of the raised floor with a synthetic belt, which goes to the handles for the bags. This is for reliability and the central belt creates handles for opening the raised floor.

In the final part, I connected the cut rubber mat and the raised floor sections with aluminum strips, using up all 100 pieces. self-tapping screws purchased for this purpose. I mentioned the mat at the beginning that I bought it for the trunk option without a false floor.

Now the sections have become movable due to rubber, while synthetic belts protect against rupture, especially in winter, when the elasticity of the rubber will be less. You can open one or two sections of the raised floor on each side to gain access to the contents of the trunk niche. This is much more convenient than completely unloading the trunk to open large sections. All the machine’s accessories can be easily accommodated inside - a jack, a pump, first aid kits, a fire extinguisher and many other things that you constantly carry with you.

I will also put a new mat on top, for the option with a raised floor, and enjoy the empty trunk.

DIY Lada Vesta floors

I spent a long time making a double bottom (raised upper floor) for my car and I suggest that those interested see the result below.

Once I saw an unsightly picture on the Internet of how a man made a folding table with his own hands from a homemade upper raised floor of a Lada Vesta SW (and from two floors connected to each other) and began to become interested in it. I realized that there were no good, tested solutions on this topic and began to think for myself. Table from the floor Vesta.jpgTable from the floor Vesta-2.jpg Sometimes I often go out of town, fishing, nature, dacha, barbecue. There is a lot of travel equipment, including a folding table in the form of a suitcase with four folding stools in it. You've probably seen these in sports supermarkets. The table is good, but it takes up too much space and it’s flat, and you can’t put anything particularly heavy on it—you’ll break the thin tabletop. Also, considering that I have the Lada Vesta SW Cross Black version, which means I don’t have an upper raised floor from the factory, I decided to have a table!

I immediately rejected the system of fastening two raised floors together to form a table, since this would require an assistant and the entire trunk would need to be disassembled to remove the floors, and this is not always possible, and besides, the structure would be flimsy at the point of their connection. I also excluded a table with a system for screwing legs onto the tabletop due to their large diameter (at least 50 mm) and their bulkiness (they would then need to be put somewhere when disassembling). In the end, I settled on the design of a folding table made from one raised floor with tubular folding scissor-type legs.

I bought a pine board, glaze varnish, a donor table and started. I found a sketch for making an upper raised floor on the Internet almost immediately. A table made from the floor of Vesta-5.jpg According to the size, I cut out a template from cardboard that fit well into the seats of the car (it was made to check this). I cut out the raised floors according to the dimensions of the sketch, sanded them (this is a very important point), covered them with lissing varnish, again sanded the “rising” pile and covered them with the same varnish 3-4 more times until completely dry. I screwed the legs and installed the fittings. I cut the shield there in a construction hypermarket, and made the corners and holes at home myself. The shield was spliced ​​(boards 40-60 mm wide glued together at the factory), thickness 18 mm. I don’t recommend plywood - it will still sag. The boards will require jointing. Lising varnish is a varnish for interior and not always exterior work without harmful additives for imparting a decorative finish to wood using various technologies (believe me, there are many of them). It was possible to create a patina effect, make it look like Venetian plaster, give an aging effect, add mother-of-pearl, etc. I chose the technology of simply sanding it well to highlight the texture of the pine, and varnishing it in wenge color. The coating had to be applied anyway. It was funny to watch the already cut floors standing against the wall at home. Depending on the weather and air humidity, they curved along the spliced ​​elements (parallel to the places of their connection) in different directions and at different angles. I already began to think after a week that with their help you can predict the weather
