    Cool GQ 1/2 Cargo Barrier

    Hi all,

    Chasing a half cargo barrier for my GQ mav so that I can still fit draws under it.

    Just missed out on one on eBay on fri night so still looking.

    Happy to pay up good $$ for a good nick Milford or something like that.

    Also prepared to travel 100ks (from CBD) if necessary... maybe more.

    Anyhoos, maybe post here or PM me if you have one or know someone that does.

    Cheers, Dave

    Hi mate, where did you get one? And how much?

    Also, this is a National Forum and you have you location as "anywhere but work"???
    Keep in mind that 100kms from the CBD could be anywhere??? What State are you in??

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Heya MudRunner,

    Thanks for the reply & fair point re: location. Didn't think of that when writing the ad... apologies. I'm in NE Melbourne. Ill change it in a sec.

    Ended up doing a ring around to the major milford stockists and was getting different prices from everyone.

    Decided to then call Milford direct to see what their price is. They came back with an RRP of $470. Everyone seemed to mark up milfords price a fair bit.

    Spoke to cando4x4 in lilydale who said they would do it for that price plus fitting of a couple of hundred. So I am taking it in on Friday for the fitting. Hopefully they honor the price and all goes well.

    The other reasons I decided to go for a new one was for the warranty and the fact that the mounting kit is included. That way I don't have to scury around trying to find bits and pieces from an eBay sale, plus I know nothing has happened to the barrier in the past.

    Even the eBay ones I have been looking at have gone for 300-350 without brackets and sight unseen. For an extra $100-150 on a new product, its wasn't worth the trouble buying 2nd hand IMO.

    Cheers, Dave

    Looked cutting one down a while back and was even offered a cut sown unit but with kids eventually going into the back seat, I simply couldn't rely on it being safe. Maybe I'm wrong but I guess safer than sorry
