    I like the way the Xanadoo hinges down.
    I think I’ve changed my mind.
    Sometimes procrastination can pay off.

    That's a nice classy bit of kit for a D3/4. I would love one. On the last couple of long trips in my D1, I used some old elastic cargo net off my trailer and strung it up between the roof grab handles above both rear passenger doors and my rear fittings for my cargo barrier. I packed my pillows and some bedding up there against the roof and it worked a treat. Not so sure it would work in my D3 though.
    Life is just a series of obstacles preventing you from taking a nap.

    Strangely enough, I brought the Xanado Boot Basket not the roof one.

    Below is part of a write up I did on our Club facebook page Land Rover Owners Cairns - Home | Facebook

    If you want to contact Stewart (Stubo) try Stuart Smith <stubosmith@me.com> he is a Paramedic and works shifts.
    He designed and now has the baskets manufactured for him, there had been some problems but he seems to be on track now.

    I ordered mine on 5th August, it was in the country around the 10th of September, finally got it through customs (another long story) and received it on 20th September.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The Land Rover OEM barrier is perfect, unlike the locally Milford made units it does not take any extra space in the cargo area. Its design allows some storage using the cargo net behind the headrest and against the cage, Akubra, First aid kit, Gloves and stubbie holders, all light and quick to access.


    I have supplemented this with a Xanadoo Boot Basket.


    Stuart is UK based but makes quality equipment for Disco 3's and 4's Xanadoo Boot Basket - Home | Facebook


    This basket saves me stacking items on top of each other, it separates the light from heavy and allows me to access items without unloading and repacking.
    The boot basket slips up against the Cargo barrier if I need to carry taller objects which is fantastic.
    I can also pull the cargo cover across the top of the basket if needed.


    I had noticed that some people put their fire extinguishers on the boot side of the cargo barrier, mine is on the passenger side where it is easy to access it in an emergency.
