Made. Some text from my dad (dbrick) about the process:

Measured the car width behind the rear seat. Went to hardware store, bought a roll-up window shade (the kind that's spring-loaded on a wooden roller). Screwed the roller mounts to the front of the cargo compartment just behind the rear seat and just under the side windows. Screwed little pipe-holder fittings at the back, again just under window level; these fittings hold the "bottom" of the shade, which is stiffened with a wooden batten. It's a PITA to get the camlock to work, but it does cover the cargo compartment.

It's an effective cover, but for whatever reason, I tend not to use it, because I don't travel much in the car and in town I choose NOT to leave a pile of stuff in the back. Prevention, I suppose. If you're curious about how it looks, let me know and I'll go out and take some pictures.
