Thread: T5 Cargo Barrier Question

    Lookin good.
    The only other item I would recommend, is some protection for the upper rear panels.
    My rear panels were the same as yours........until a trolley I had in the back fell over when I went around a corner, and it put a nice dent in the upper panel.
    The next day I ordered full height panels from VW. IMO, these vans should come with full height panels from the factory.

    Thanks Oldercoops. You're welcome to come and have a look anytime.

    And thanks for the suggestion on the upper panels IN2VWS. I'll look into that.
    I'm also pondering some way to attach some tie down points up higher. Have you got any ideas on that. I guess I'd have to secure some "D" rings to the pillars somehow.

    I installed these rails form Sortimo.

    That height might do.
    Does it just screw in with self tapping screws?

    No, There is 10 screw holes in each bar. I used M6 rivnuts/nutserts.

    That's almost too neat to work out of!

    Thanks again IN2VWS. it looks like that's the best option. And, those fill in panels? Did you make them yourself? Or are they the ones you spoke of earlier and ordered from VW?

    "Work?"
    I'm not familiar with that term! Please explain!

    They were the VW ones. The left and right sides are mirror images of each other. They are grey on the reverse side, but I liked the timber look, so I put them on backwards.

    Hi David, Just happen to log in to renew subscription and saw you post. Really appreciate some good feed back and great photos. Our high quality products are not always understood in Australia. VW ers get it but other brands often struggle. Thanks again and catch you next time when in Mudgee.
