Automobile trunk liner

A one-piece trunk liner for an automobile trunk compartment wherein the trunk liner is formed of fibrous material and molded to form a relatively stiff body having a center floor cover panel and a plurality of panels extending along the sides of the center floor panel and integrally connected thereto and extending upwardly and outwardly from the center floor cover panel so as to be in outwardly diverging relation to the center floor cover panel. The stiffness of the molded fibrous body and the outwardly diverging relationship of the plurality of panels permit the panels to resiliently engage inner wall surfaces of the trunk when the panels are biased inwardly toward an upright position when mounted in the trunk to thereby facilitate mounting the trunk liner in the trunk of an automobile and the maintaining of the trunk liner in the installed position in engagement with the walls of the trunk.
