XC60 "dirt cover, load protector"

[ajhj]

Anyone used the genuine Volvo dirt cover load protector? It's supposed to cover the boot sides and seat backs more or less completely. The genuine one is £180 which seems a bit steep?

I've researched Other products and "hatchbag" http://www.hatchbag.co.uk/product.php?xProd=1148
seems to be a pretty good product but still priced at around £110: like for like in terms of product specs.

I'm feeling like the Volvo product is a bit pricey but I can't seem to get any info about how it attaches. The Hatchbag product uses Velcro but I'm not keen on applying double sided (sticky) Velcro to the inside of my nice new car. ... When it arrives. I think the Volvo one might use some sort of studs etc? ???

Any help (pics?) Greatly appreciated. If like to get this ordered before the car arrives si i can fit it immediately as taking the dog in holiday quickly after the car is due to be delivered. .... assuming it's on time - eek!

I have Volvo original, well worth the money

The pictures On the Volvo website are completely accurate as to how it looks and fits.

We have the big one with 'XC60' on the back of it. It's really good, if expensive.

Added photos in post below. Sides are mainly held up by connections to the vents below rear window. Clever fasteners secure the boot edge which slip into the trim.

Hi, l bought the hatchbag cover that does the whole area inc the tail flap and extra cover for when the seats are down. It's excellent and fits very well. I didn't bother sticking on the Velcro bits but it's not been a problem as the seat back bits are held by elastic straps to the headrest and it all velcros pretty tight into shape so there is minimal sagging at the sides. You'll probably need a non slip mat for the dog but the material is tough. I have just got a full boot dog crate custom made and it slides straight in and the liner provides water proofing for the floor and keeps hair off most places. Tailgate is only potential for hair as they don't do a co er piece as the fabric is high quality and Velcro doesn't stick well apparently. The crate will hopefully keep my ridgeback pup off there! Wouldn't hesitate to buy the hatchbag cover for less. I got the seat splits put in too which has been useful. It was about £120 in total. Grey is quite classy, tried to avoid the bright pink!

I have the hatchbag one as above, bought unused from ebay for £80. Fits very well, I too don't use the Velcro and it seems to hold up well without it. I've got the black version.

Thanks folks. That's really useful info. Sound like either of these would do the job. I'll work on the dealer to cut his price hopefully.
