Cargo Barrier - Fitting Kit

[besp]

Brilliant. Thanks a lot chaps.

Any reason I can't bend the bracket a bit and fit to the handrail bolts?

And what about the floor mounts? How did you deal with those?

You might want to consider that when you get a rated cargo barrier, the top brackets (fixed to the grab handle holes) is actually corrugated so in the event of a sudden stop they straighten slightly to absorb the shock--kinda like air bags. No worries so long as you don't hit anything.

Good point Dr Gary.
Think I'll just make the plate!

Hi JFF
Just bought a 2nd hand barrier , was thinking bout doing exactly what you have done . After putting the steel plate between the grab handle and the roof , we're the original handle bolts still long enough or are longer bolts required , to allow for the thickness of the steel plate ?

I used longer high tensile 6mm bolts in place of the Philips head originals
