My thinking is wooden dowels ( broom sticks?) painted black and some black thick fabric with the dowels sown in a bit like a wind break but dowels closer together, then some c channel runners on the sides, boot is not square as you can see from pic above so C channels will need to be packed out to be parallel.

Re: T3 parcel shelf?
OK,
The OEM one does look like mk2 Passat, but as the T25 is much wider it will not fit.
Have a go with the alternate, a solid wooden one can of course also take weight if needed.

This is a day van so I need to get to it from the inside, a solid cover would make that more difficult.

And new parts were available a few years ago:
