Forgive me if this has been asked before, I'm a newbie, I tried a couple searches but didn't find exactly what I was looking for
I'm looking for ideas on any partitions or trunk organizers you all have used/found over the years
I made my first grocery store run in it, and by the time I made it home, everything had slid across that plastic cargo panel. (I do plan on getting the rubber AW mat soon)
I looked up the original GM accessory organizer at work, but it looks like it takes up half the cargo area, I'd rather not sacrifice that much
My fun-car is a 87 Monte Carlo and I've always kept a 2-ton jack/oil/ATF/water/jumper cables/air kit in the trunk of it, I'd like to have a similar safety kit in my HHR, but I want to keep it neat
You do realize that the floor panel has a "hidden" truck area underneath? Personally I'd not keep anything of value visible. Even with the doors locked, if they see something they think they can sell, they'll break a window to get it. We've hidden a lot of different things under that panel over the years. It should be deep and roomy enough for most of what you are taking about, except maybe the jack.
On top however, even with factory carpet we've had things slide around. Ours came with a cargo net. Highly recommended.

FYI. That safety kit is a good idea but not for the open cargo area of the HHR. In the event of an accident, those things can become a deadly projectile inside the cabin area.
Best to limit your safety kit to items that will store in the spare tire compartment. The storage bins behind the seats can hold small things. Just have them fastened down somehow.
Safety 1st.
Get that stock skating rink mat outta there, & add something that is good rubber & non-skid. As to the front storage bins they can be modified to be twice as deep or more.
Agree 100% w/ FMG about having that safety kit loose on the floor. Not good.
Greybeard- Nice set-up, & having the fire extinguisher, mine is in the same location, but a smaller chrome version. Lot of car shows require you to have one.
Do you have a panel or a regular HHR? If it is a regular HHR and you leave the seat up, you can locate a second well cover and put it nth upper position creating a "trunk". That is what I did.
