Abstract
A removable motor vehicle boot insert (1) comprises two rigid insert portions (2, 3) which overlap at 10, 11 on assembly within a boot A to follow the contour of the boot A. Flexible wing portions (15, 16) of a side wall (6) of each insert portion (2, 3) urge the insert portions (2, 3) into engagement on assembly within the boot. Retainers (31) for releasably anchoring a container (30) to the insert comprises a screw (33) having an enlarged head (34) defining a cam surface and an extension defining a handle (35) for turning the screw. The cam surface of the screw head (34) engages in a groove (40) in opposed end walls of the container (30) to anchor the container in a desired position on the insert.
