    Hi All,

    I'm having some trouble with a cargo barrier installation...

    It's a VT wagon and the barrier I picked up second hand is labelled VT - but it seems as though its too big to fit around the wheel arches.. (See attached picture)

    Have I got the wrong barrier or am I just not putting it in the right way??


    Would really appreciate some help :)


    Thanks,
    Tim

    It looks as though the car has been modified. Those box sections on each side aren't meant to be there.

    I don't think the car has been modified, the box sections are just the wheel arches..

    But I've seen some images of different barriers on the internet that appear to have cut-outs for the wheel arches...

    The person who I bought the barrier off has the same model car with the same wheel arches - so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong!


    any ideas?

    Have you got it around the right way? It's not upside down is it?

    Does it fit between the back seat and the wheel arches?

    it is labelled a VT cargo barrier on the holden compliance plate. but I can't get it to fit behind the front seats or behind the rear seats...

    very confusing!
