Thanks guys.
To separate the dog cage from the luggage, do you know if a vertical luggage/load space partition is available for a defender? M |

in my brothers 110 USW he had a lower gun drawer then "T" type cage that basically had the front of the dog guard forming the top of the "T" and then the leg being a divider between basically 2x cages (think it also had doors on the rear side??)
he put Mutley in one side and everything else in the opposite |

Surely, one side of the dog crate does that for you? |

A few photos of mine.
Double benefit is having the flat deck the full width of the tub: Click image to enlarge With dog crate it is "effectively" full height divide, at least in my tub, where I have a net hung from the rails to store bulking but lightweight items: Click image to enlarge With regard to the depth, I actually find it a decent enough space with some careful packing: Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |

I had a MSS drawer in my previous 110 300tdi. It was very useful as others have said. I now have a 2.2tdci CSW and have been looking for a solution that gives a flat floor. I found this and the benefit is that you don't have to drill any one other holes as it uses the tie down point which I thought was good. But it's on the expensive side so haven't done anything about it: https://www.paranoidindustries.com/shop/pr...-dividers/ 2.2 Tdci 110 XS CSW Corris Grey

If I'm not mistaken, the chap behind Paranoid used to make the MSS drawers, and then moved away from that to set up Paranoid?
The Paranoid kit does look good, but that website needs some work on it, photos are confusing and do not really show what a clever system it may be. |

I had a good look at Paranoid at Peterborough last year.
It really does look a nice bit of kit and they had a cracking show deal but the funds couldn’t quite stretch to getting one. |

Just out of curiosity, has anyone dealt with Pananoid before?

ATW,
I like the look of Paranoid stuff. I’ve tried to contact them via their website and email and had no response. I try not to let these things sour my judgement of a company as you can never tell with wiggly amps, but I’ve not received a response. I think the ‘We’ve received your message and will get in touch soon’ type messages are really useful. Especially when completing web forms. Admittedly, I haven’t had chance to phone them yet. I would also be interested to hear of positive interaction with the company. NG. |

I spoke to them on the phone last year about the possibility of a custom one off item and they were very helpful and friendly. I didn't go ahead as it was just going to be too expensive, but I would have felt happy dealing with them. I made initial contact through Facebook which got a quick response. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

Thanks, Bluest. As a Neo-Luddite this forum is as ‘social’ as I get.

I use an mss short draw in back of my 110usw. Dog crate sits on top to one side. Ply shelf all the way across the top. Plenty of room in front of draw for 2nd dog too.
Draw has air tools, sockets, water, cooker, shower kit, bulbs, axe, toilet paper, some food and awning spares. I fitted it 9 years ago to see how I got on with it, it's still in there. Wasnt too keen on a full length draw though. Wanted to maintain rear door access s without lifting floor.
