What is this in my trunk?
Hi everyone - FNG here and very happy new (to me) owner of '14 35is... with probably a stupid question.
Can anyone tell me what item #11(+12) in this diagram is? Here it is shown in another picture I cam across: It seems I have to remove some plastic covers (#15) to snap this into place... any reason why I should - useful purpose? and what are the rubber ties (#12) for? |

Cold weather package.
That's part of the cold weather package, and yes, it's a support for skis. It snaps in near the back of the trunk when in use, and right at the front for storage (as in your picture). In the pass-through door to the cabin is a plastic bag, attached to the door so you can put in a set of skis so you won't have wet skis in the cabin.
The passthrough is also useful for golf clubs (take the long clubs out of the bag and put them through there). |

Ah - thanks for the info guys. Since skiing has left its permanent mark on my left knee way back when - I don't think I'll be taking out those covers to install this... that is unless anyone has seen any other benefit/use for this. Actually I've been thinking of taking out the pass-thru bag and using the shelf kit instead - but mine only came with one shelf.
