something like the metal barrier they use in station wagons, to stop all the bags comeing into the passenger area when i hit the anchors.

have a look at the wreckers or the dump recycling centres for a cargo barrier that would fit approximately and cut to size much easier than making one from scratch

Brian

check out the local junk throw outs n pick up an old flyscreen door for the alloy screen section, then you could get some C section from the Coprel at rockerdale to make a frame up.

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

I was thinking the same for my new T3.
My next door neighbour is a courier and he says their guys use a foldable one. I suction cups onto the side windows and then adjusts up and down.
Forgot to ask where you get them from but i asssume Auto 1 / Repco...... i will ask him when i see him next

I'd be looking for a 2nd hand one at the wreckers, possibly out of a later model people mover. Make sure it bolts in - I wouldn't trust one that relies on suction cups to the windows. The whole point of a cargo barrier is to stop large, inflexible objects hitting you in the back of the head in the case of an accident. 🙂
