Thread: Land Rover Cargo Barrier

I think the part number is RAA559. It cost $669 for the barrier + $400 to fit at Massaro Motors in Morwell.

Now lets get things right.
There is the Dog Barrier VUB501170 which is not rated to Aust ADR's
There is the Cargo Barrier RAA559 which meets Aus ADR's & is made by Hayman Reece from memory.
There WAS an issue early on with the Dog Barrier from LR. (not with the part but availability)
It wasn't available until a couple of months ago. Early on you would order the Dog Guard & end up with a Cargo Barrier regardless. Even if you entered the LR Dog Guard into the parts listing it was not available to come to Australia.

NOW you can order either.

Cheers

Thanks for clarifying Sniegy.

It's a pity the LR website still lists the "cargo barrier" as part number VUB501170, which makes things quite confusing. No mention of dog guard at all.

Great to know the part we're actually after is RAA559.

Thanks again.

The barrier is rated to 60kg and has two unobtrusive attachments points either side, top and bottom. Also comes with a hammer attached to break the glass if you somehow became locked behind the barrier with the doors locked!
I think the other posters may have confused the cargo barrier with the dog barrier, which serves a different purpose and is not rated.
I wouldn't haven't any hesitation recommending the LR barrier - may just boil down to pricing, assuming the alternative versions fit as well (may need to check with the manufacturers that you can still use the cargo blind with them fitted).

You're quite right.

I was referring to the dog guard as I thought the RAA559 was no longer available - at least that was what I was told when I tried to order one with my D4 last year. Knowing my dealer it doesn't surprise me they were wrong.

I had the RAA559 fitted to my D3. It was made by Hayman Reese and it is identical to the Milford. It is as good as the others and was in fact the Hayman Reese one I referred to in my previous post.

If that is still available, I can recommend it too. However I still prefer the Autosafe as it doesn't require any holes in the trim.

Cheers,
Jon

Hi All,
Slightly off topic, but are there any cargo barriers for the D3/4 which are two position, ie they can be moved from behind the second row seats to behind the first row (id you need more load area)?
Thanks
Mike

AKAIK - No. When I researched was advised that the curtain airbags prevent moving a barrier to behind first row seats.

+1 for Autosafe.
I also had mine made with mesh only on the top half. The bottom half is open allowing the seats to be still folded down and longer items stuck through.

I'm looking for a cargo barrier for my 2012 D4. Noted the Auotosafe and Milford ones but I'm looking at the "official" LR one. They use the term "cargo barrier" on the website and give the part number that Sniegy said was a "dog barrier". It look pretty substantial. Perhaps I should ask my dealer and be clear what it is I am after.

I know LR products aren't always the best and are always the most expensive but I have trust issues with installers going to town on my interior if I don't at least have a recommendation. Has anyone in Perth had a barrier fitted to their satisfaction?

I would like to be able to remove it and use the cargo blind most if the time.
