This might be too late for you, but I bought the cargo cover for my fit and love it. Velcro was my answer to not having to screw it into the back seats. I just picked up some heavy duty adhesive backed velcro and affixed the "teeth" side of it to the cargo cover only. I found that it stuck to the seatback fabric without having to attach the velcro to the car itself.
 
Hope this helps.

Full Length Cargo Mat by tom251

Well, I just had my first bad experience since buying the 09 Fit. We have two dogs and keep the second seat folded flat so that their dog beds will fit [sic]. I ordered what I thought was a full length rubber cargo mat [back of front seat to rear of car] from an "Official" Honda website which showed a cargo mat that met our requirements. When it came it was the small one that works with the second seats up. They claimed that the photo, while wrong, represented the product but agreed to accept a return.
Soooo, does anyone know of an after market place where I can get a full length cargo mat from the back of the front seat to the rear hatch?
Many thanks.

That sounds like a possibility. I hope that there are other options as well.

I just bought a floor mat at Home Depot-- the kind used to protect carpet at a door entrance. Mine is a carpet over rubber model about 48 inches by 65 inches. (I don't remember the exact dimensions.) One end hangs over the edge between the front seat backs and the folded down rear seats but this presents no problem. It lacks a couple of inches of covering wheel well to wheel well but it works great at a very cheap price. If you want exact fit, they have several material types on rolls where you just buy the width and number of feet of length you want. For dogs, you might want to cut to fit but for my purposes being close to size was good enough. (When the rear seats are up, I just roll it to the back so it still covers the small cargo floor but is out of the way. I've have used this with satisfactory results for almost a year.

Love our new 2009 Fit, but wonder why cargo cover isn't standard.
 
Agreed that it is a nickel-and-dime thing to avoid the cargo cover. Having said that, this is one area where Honda went backwards, IMHO.
 
I had the 2008 Honda Fit (no longer have it), for which I bought Honda's cargo cover, which was a retractable design. When not needed, the cargo cover could be easily taken out and stowed or left retracted.
 
I had the dealer install the cargo cover into the 2009 Fit that I bought recently, but was surprised to see that the slick retractable design has been replaced with a cover that is permanently affixed to the rear. It looks good but is a lot less functional than the prior 2008 design, IMHO.
 
The 2009/2010 is a big leap over the 2008 design in several ways but the cargo cover design is definitely an area where they went backwards.

auto acceleration by cindy43

08 Fit accelerates and revs high as if someone is pressing the gas.; The only way to stop it is to turn it off. The dealer cannot duplicate it and tells me there have not been similar complaints. Any out there?

Probably ought to post this in some other discussion rather than the one on cargo space. . .
 
Does your car have floor mats? Check to see if the floor mat is weighing down the accelerator.
