Sturdy and strong. Fits my freelander perfectly. Did secure to the headrest posts with cable ties as others have. Stops my spoilt doggy jumping over the back seats into the front passenger seat. I’m probably happier with this purchase than she is.
The only criticism is that there is a Brand metal label set right in the middle of the unit which block the view in the rear view mirror of any close up vehicle. Should be moved well to one side or omitted.
When left on her own my GSD would not stay in the rear compartment of my Macan. I did not need the two outer “wings” so fitting this guard was straightforward. Excellent value for money and the upholstery in my car is now fully protected.
I have a Fiesta and just the main part of the Dog guard was sufficient to fit across the back head rests without the two side guards. It was easier to put the one piece together with the clips. Before tightening the screws just make sure it’s in the right place and I used the lowest holes to get the correct height up to the car roof. The shape of the car roof will determine how high to fit it. A good, sturdy guard which stops our small dog getting over the back. (She is secure anyway with a seat belt strap fitted into a seat belt and pulled through the split seating to secure her with her harness) I also use a boot tidy cover and dog bed to keep the boot clean. The rear window gets messy! A good guard for the money.
I bought this to stop one of my dogs jumping up onto the parcel shelf. She is only small but over time I feared the parcel shelf would become weakened and collapse. I could not put this guard in using the brackets supplied as I could not put the parcel shelf in as the brackets were too low and prevented the shelf from fitting in place. It took me over an hour trying to fit it with the 2 side “wings” but finally I got it fitted by using cable ties instead of the brackets. It does the job and you can’t see the cable ties. In fact it looks neater without the 2 brackets!
Great piece of equipment for the money. But you need three hands to put it together!
Other than trying to get the screws to do what they are suppose to do, good quality and build for the money.
As I drive a C3 it is the best job for this car and have it in the car about 10mins after I got it. The dog is happy in the back and we know he is safe
Good quality product. Does not fit 2013 Audi A6 Avant (estate). The 2 side sections cannot be installed due to the curve of the roof. Without these the gap is just too big so dog could get through. Shame because the product appears of good quality.
Just the trick, to keep the pooches from climbing on the grandchildren when I have them and saves my seats from any doggy travel sickness incidents.
Sturdy, not movement so far.
Fits my BMW i3 fairly well without having to use the 2 extension panels. Easy to fit, and my Bedlington Whippet can now no longer slobber all over the back seat on the way home.
Good quality guard for the boot on car. Attached to headrest using plastic clips but it keeps the guard solid and sturdy. One of the clips broke after 5 months when I temp removed it. Emailed the company and they said they would send me replacements. 2 days later I received 6 new clips. Cannot fault them at all.
I wasn’t expecting much due to the cheaper price and yes it’s not the sturdiest looking but it will do the job. I found instructions easy to follow and did 90% by myself, just needed extra pair of hands for actual installation.
Comes with 3 lengths of screws but even the longest didn’t fit when following instructions. I have fitted it the opposite way round with the vertical bars on the headrest side. Was still fiddly as the cross bars got in the way but managed to make it work.
There is a gap at the top and I imagine if you have a particularly boisterous or determined dog, they will get through, destroying everything in the process.
It was a little fiddly to install without an extra pair of hands but seems sturdy enough now it’s in place. It’s a decent fit for my 2006 Honda Jazz. Great for the low price.
1-pic of the box
2-what you get in the box, the main rack and the 2 sides, the holders and the screws
3-the car boot, I have a Vauxhall Mokka, the dimensions on my boot are;
width – 1001
length -745
height – 485
capacity – 326
4-ok, so here is where we start to attach it to the headrests, centre the main rack on the boot or the car, then attach the poles with the holes facing down and out, make sure they are aligned with one of the headdress metal poles.
5-attach the side bits with the “3shaped” plastic bits, you should only need 4 attachments, however it would depend on how wide your boot is.
6-now choose he screw size they fits best, depending on the distance between the guard and the metal poles, I had to use the longest Ines, however the medium one would have done to job too.
7 and 8- now once you have align the poles with the headrest go ahead and start screwing the hook.
9-repeat on the other side !
