Body/Trim: 70: - Fitting V70 Classic side cargo nets?

Mike Stead · Aug 10th, 2006, 11:56

Anyone have any advice/experience/instructions on how to fit these nets?

They come with 3 plastic catches each, looks like they need holes drilling in the side panels and a star washer fitting to the other side to hold them in place.

Any info much appreciated,

Mike

Are you talking about the one inbuilt into the back of the rear seats or to go on the 'Floor' of the boot? it should have little metal hoops in each corner to attach a net to.

Hi Chris,

No, these are two nets held up with wire frames, that fit into the space between the wheel arches and the back of the load area. They are specific to L & R as the arches are different profiles. The rear of the wire frames looks like it hooks into the cargo loops just inside the boot edge. They are for storing light items like coats, hats, etc - things you would be OK being hit in the back of the head with at 70mph basically! In our case, child's colouring books, soft toys and blankets ;-)

Cheers,

Mike
