Dog Guard

Does the factory dog guard fit with the slding floor?

If not do any after market dog guards fit with the sliding floor?

Cheers

Nick , have a sliding floor myself , tried to look on the Info website to see what fixings the DG requires and if any are fixed through the floor hence impeding the slider when retracted .But I couldn't find the fitting instructions.Looked at a few pics on ebay and can't see from them either but they look to be fixed via the sides of the D3.Half height guard wouldn't be a problem for sure.Sorry I can't help. Sad

OK,
I did havce a dog guard a while back & I know that that fixes to the floor in the same mounts as the forward SF mounts.
Looks like the 1\2 height DG is the one then.

There's a bracket each side that fits underneath the rear tie-downs so if the sliding floor uses them too it's probably a no go. The half height Britpart one uses the same points so that probably won't work either.

My guard (LR one) isn't fitted at the mo so I could bring it to the next SE meet if you want to give it a try Nick

The Sliding Floor uses all four tie down points.

For sliding floor and dogs, I think this is the best solution:

I'm about to sell a spare sliding floor - it's as new and only used once if you're interested.

Nick, if I remember I will bring mine to Sue's Wednesday - if not all the fixing brackets are in the car so we can have a look.

Found this whilst rummaging about.Look closely and youll see that the sliding floor is fitted along with the Dog/Cargo guard . Pics taken of a G4 at the 2004 SEMA Exhib.

Hard to tell on those photos but it looks like they left the bottom brackets off Confused
