Re: Cargo Barrier
Thanks for the info guys. Well I've done a bit of research so I thought I'd share what I've found. I have a sunroof.
I was originally after an ausguard barrier, mainly because I have heard that it fits closer to the rear seats. I'm still not sure if this is a result of the barrier, the fitting instructions or the installers.
I got quoted $560 from a roof rack company in Brisbane (who have been slack enough with my enquiries as to stop me from getting one through them) and $433 from Caddy Storage systems in Brisbane. That's a huge price difference! Both were supplied and installed. Unfortunately, due to some issues with the supplier (it appears that are imported from Italy, so they should be called Wogguards ) and I couldn't get one before I head up to Fraser where I'll really need it.
Prices I've been quoted for the Milford barrier are $456/$610 supply/supply&fit from nissan, and $567 fitted with another local company.
Given that I'm running out of time, I'm going to have to go the milford option. I'm a bit nervous about the space behind the seat, but I'll talk to the installer and see what they can do.
Once it's done I'll report with pics and my verdict.

Re: Cargo Barrier
OK, it's all done. I got the Milford installed on Friday. As it turns out the mounting points are near the tailgate. Not ideal, but that's life with a sunroof.
The mounting points on the floor are also through the spare wheel cover, meaning that you have to undo the bolts on the floor (can be done with fingers) to get into the spare wheel cavity. A bit of a pain, but that's just the way it is. I might look at doing a mod to replace the wheel cover with a hinged piece of wood. I think I recall seeing someone else do that on here.
There is a gap of about 5cms between the barrier and the seats when not reclined. Kev has a good mod to reduce this (where did you get this done, Kev?). For now, this actually suits as we have the child carrier reclined.
Here are some pics:
