King_GH Extreme Veteran Date registered: Oct 2011 Location: London Vehicle(s): 95 G300 RHD Posts: 324 | 463 Cargo cover or alternatives I have been looking for a cargo area cover for a trip we're planning and the OEM ones are pretty expensive. I was wondering if there were any other alternatives or how other folk have improvised when they've been on trips. | ||

Just Google them. i cant post pictures here. Also check out the SA G website MB4x4.co.za. There is a guy currently selling a used set for dirt cheap - about 300 USD. | ||

The issue is how to match the measurements. Any ideas? I think the MB and the other alternatives are far too expensive. | ||
