| Seat covers / cargo barriers |
|
All, anyone recommend cheaper than LR seat covers that suit D3 and air bag compatible?
Also, anyone have a drawer system fitted WITH a cargo barrier?
I have the OL boab (six box) system and wanted to know if anyone had managed to fit a cargo barrier with this system?
Ironically, having reviewed the on line fitting instructions for the genuine (UK) LR D3 cargo barrier, it will fit perfectly (given design of the legs that attach to the tie down points enabling the drawer system to still fit) - but LR Oz wont supply it as its not ADR compliant; sigh.

Have you tried OL. They have cargo barriers and I presume they would fit their draw system. Don't know if they would fit a D3 though.
Personally I have Black Widow drawers and cargo barrier.
As for seat covers I had sheep skin covers tailor made. Al they do is split the side seam to make it airbag compatible. You don't even notice the split. 2005 SE TDV6, white; remapped to 185Kw; Black widow drawers & cargo barrier; underbody radiator guard; Mitchell bros tow hitch; rhino roof racks; Traxide duel battery system; GME 3440 UHF; Alpine W502 entertainment unit with front & rear camera, HiTv GPS & Hema off-road maps.

I have those drawers and a 4x4 intelligence supplied cargo barrier behind the second row of seats. The bottom of the cargo barrier is, like the drawers, secured with turnbuckles (from yachting supplier) to the tie down points. I have the drawers on pine boards across the front and back of the drawers to lift them free of the tailgate and to take their weight off the seats. The front pine board has a ridge board fixed along the top so it acts as the spacer between the cargo barrier and the drawers. I don't have them installed at the moment so a picture is difficult. Let me know if you would like further info.

Thanks guys - very useful info! Opposite Lock Bunbury (WA) fitted my drawers while I was living in Perth; they mounted them on a flat wooden base (neatly carpeted) and mounting poits screw directly into the Land Rover tie down points (ie you remove the tie down points themselves and use same threads with new screws to hold system in place). Sorry I havent got system in car to show photos! I'll call OL in Rockdale and see if they can help me with a little more info. The problem has been the angle of the bottom securing points on some cargo barriers - the box shape of the drawer system prevents these angled securing points from reaching the tie down points.
cheers

Thanks Peterall but I have had the OL drawer system for 18 months now - just never found a Cargo Barrier that fits with it as some of them are angled back into the cargo area and hit the drawers and others the legs at the bottom dont fit; there are a number of new barriers on the market now (Autosafe, Milford, Hayman Reece etc) so thought I'd see if anyone had managed to fit one that also fits with the OL 6 boab box drawers in place; I suspect I might just need to modify an existing barrier (modify the legs at the bottom) this is what OL in Rockdale did with IanR's system evidently (according to them)
