    GU cargo barrier clear PVC cover

    Getting a cargo barrier this weekend. I've seen several patrols have a very nice, clear or tinted PVC cover/backing. One I've seen recently was a really nice job fitted to the barrier, with edges done properly.
    Where do people get these from ?

    I should have mentioned it was the soft pvc veriety, what I'm after. Just like your ordinary outdoor roll up blinds, not the hard perspex.

    Any auto trimmer can make these up, they use the same clear PVC they use for the rear windows on a soft top roof, most trimmers will have it in stock, then its just some button clips or velcro (will also have in stock)

    You can actually get them pre-made from the barrier manufacturer for some models, but ive only ever seen them for vans not cars ?

    I had a pre-made one in my Sprinter van, i had to, as the rear cargo area was over 4M long, so cooling that, plus all the gear in the back, was just not practical.

    I just got some clear PVC and zip tied it to the cargo barrier and trimmed it off to fit .

    Later I cut it off as the boot was getting really hot while we were traveling out west at during summer and the fridge was working its ass off so I removed it to let some air conditioning get back there. I won't be putting any back on.

    Can't speak for everyone but I did it so when we got back from a hike or sight seeing and the car was locked up and 60degrees + it would cool down faster with the air conditioning on lol
