Very easy to fit in a Land Rover way
Its a two piece unit but you'd have to fab your own brackets up |

The genuine one I fitted to my old 07 TDCi had a drop down flap in the lower section for long loads.
It was a real pig to fit though - none of the brackets lined up so I had to bend / adjust them all. John http://www.hampshire4x4response.co.uk 2011 Tdci 110 CSW XS |

I fitted a genuine cargo barrier/dog guard took a couple of hours had to bend it a bit to fit, The bottom part is rigid well it is supposed to come off and has hinged part in the middle 600mm by 300mm,The top part comes off in ,a couple of minutes, I leave the bottom part in as that was a pain to get in line, Got mine last year for my 110 usw 2010,

It's straightforward (technically) but requires a lot of fiddling. I re-shaped one or two of the brackets in a vice to make it fit better. It'll take a couple of hours.
I'd suggest you bin the very soft Allen-key bolts that come with it and buy proper hex-head stainless bolts. They're a standard thread (m8 IIRC) but it'll save you a lot of cursing if you need to take it out and put it back frequently. The bottom section is bracketed in the 4 corners but has a drop down centre piece for long loads, skis etc. The top piece is only bracketed at the top corners and secures its bottom edge to the top of the lower section of guard (if that makes sense) so if you removed the lower section completely, the top one would be flapping about. You could easily knock up some brackets to compensate I dare say. That all said, it's a sturdy piece of kit and doesn't rattle or squeak unduly. I wouldn't be without it my 110 because I can load up to the roof now and not worry about everything flying forwards over me and the kids in the event of a sudden stop.

Sorry to resurrect this one, but how far does the cage encroach into the ‘boot’? Ie. How far behind the seats is it? Thanks Mark |
