Just call Land rover dealer in Perth, they said they don't have the dog guard for the discovery 3. I know this ia available in USA and UK.

Mitchell Bros was doing a deal of cargo barrier with a tow hitch for a good price, but I think he has run out.

Gidday noidea - I bought an Autosafe cargo barrier from Simon (simon_arch1) and am very happy with it. He posted it to me and I fitted it that same afternoon it arrived.
Can't help with the price as I bought mine quite a while ago and who knows, what with the price of fuel going up exponentionally, well, it could have risen more than a wee bit.

IS that Cargo barrier compatible with Curtain airbags?
I know the barrier for a prado with curtain bags has recessed areas each side to allow the curtain bags to inflate properly if required.
(I know this as I had a prado on order when i fell in love with D3, cancelled the Prado and 3 days later was driving my new baby!!)2012 MY13 SDV6 SE D4 Ipanema Sand with Almond leather
2012 TDI Passat - they reckon the DSG is crap, I reckon it's awesome
2010 MY11 Mitsubishi Challenger - Gone (it was a "Challenging Year")
2007 MY08 TDV6 SE - gone

Hi Dan W - Don't know if I can answer your question. Please talk to Simon directly as mine is a 5 seater but does have 2nd row airbags but not 3rd row.
The frame does not go right up to the sides of the vehicle. There is a space for the side airbags to deploy.
Also, for information, there is a placard affixed to the barrier that says "if the vehicle is fitted with side airbags then the load should be placed within the cargo barrier primeter frame".LeighW

Autosafe Industries "Tradesman" Cargo Barrier
Hi All,
I just wanted to say that I can recommend the Tradesman cargo barrier that is Manufactured by Autosafe Industries.
I got mine through Steve at "Automotive On Site" here in Adelaide. Steve had one sitting in stock for a while and was happy to depart with it for $400 cash. - A good deal I think.
It was easy to fit to my D3 - took about 45 minutes all up. The trickiest part was the fixtures under the trim in the roof lining at the back, but it was pretty easy to figure out.
It compiles with the Australian Standards and is load rated for a single 60kg load impact.
When fitted, it is still possible to use the cargo blind.
I haven't taken it out yet, but I think it wouldn't take longer than about 5 minutes.
Heading up to the Finders Ranges in a couple of weeks - looking forward to being able to stack stuff in the back and not have to worry about it!
