Are you referring to a hatch replacement for the glass or a cargo cover?

Mariah makes a fiberglass replacement for the rear glass. It ant cheap at $1150 + shipping.

Back in the day these was a cargo cover. Not sure if it was factory or aftermarket. I don't think any company sells them now and I have only seen a few up for sale by private parties.

I made one long ago using dowels and some cloth I found that matched the maroon interior. I used the factory screw holes in the back on the sides, and the holes behind the seat belt loop. With the dowel cut to fit into the wells in the plastic trim all it required was a little flex to pull it in/out. Admittedly it was not a finished looking item, but it kept the hatch area covered.

take 2 bungie cords and stretch it from side using the holes in the walls. Then hang a piece of cloth from that?
