    onboard water tank

    Hello Together,

    Looking to install a on board water tank on my D3 TDV6 S thought a good space may be behind the spare in the additional cavity or between rear seats and cargo barrier.

    Does anyone have any suggestion?

    Thanks a lot

    Steve

    I don't have anything like that clearance in front of my cargo barrier. What brand is the cargo barrier, and the tank ?
    D4 2.7litre

    great that’s what I need, haven't gotten a tank yet, where did you purchase yours? CB is OL I think I may not have enough room but probably can move barrier a bit.

    What are the dimension of the tank you have?

    Hi guys,
    the cargo barrier is from "Autosafe" Autosafe Industries Pty Ltd - Home
    I angled it back a bit to fit the tank in.
    The tank is a "Boab" from Dolium Dolium Pty Ltd

    cheers

    Boab seems to be cheaper then bladder, just would hate for something in the back to puncture the bladder and to drown in my car without a water crossing

    G'day Peter, I really like the setup and it is very similar to what I'm trying to arrange once I build the drawers, quick question though on the full cargo barrier will the bottom where it connects to the tie down points would that impede on a drawer setup as I would prefer a full cargo barrier and leave it in and only take out the drawers when not in use as opposed to having a 3/4 cargo barrier that connects to the drawers and have to take the whole lot out or leave it in permanently.

    Cheers
    Julian
