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 ?
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
