Can anyone take a quick tape measure to their SN95 trunk opening width? I'm away from the car for several days & looking to buy an instant up canopy that will actually FIT in the trunk. A few wks ago I tried a quest 10 x 10 from Dick's sporting goods and it was a no go.

The smallest I can find so far is this one:
EZ UP Dome II Instant portable shelters

Claims 47" long packed and 6.5" around.

I hate to order something and have to send it back, so any help?

Every 10x10 I've seen in stores seem to be much bigger.

Anyone have one they recommend?

Went out real quick and took a few measurements.
- The trunk opening is 48 inches across at it's widest.
- There's 12 inches of depth with that opening but it's a little tapered at the ends so you won't quite have that much at the extreme ends.

- The lower part of the trunk (not the top but where the spoiler is but where the license plate is) is 22 inches across from 2 inches above the latch striker. It widens a little bit as you approach the top opening.

I didn't take any internal measurements but I hope this helps.

Doesn't the rear seat lay down? That way you can measure the actual trunk dimensions vs the opening. Get you a couple more inches.

Shermanator - Thx! Great help. Unfortunately looks like 48" is the limiting factor. I haven't really found any less then that. Will keep looking...

65x2 - It's a vert, rear seats don't fold. The width is the limiting factor.
