Aftermarket Cargo / Tonneau cover for T31


Just picked up a aftermarket cargo cover for the T31.

Image

Intall:
1. Remove blanking plate.
2. Press out the locking mechanism on the cover as you insert it into mounting point.
3. Put rear seats in at least one click back from most upright position
4. Connect cover hooks to base stems of headrests

Good:
- Very easy install
- Uses OEM mount
- No need for new seat backs like the OEM version
- Well made, looks strong enough

Bad:
- The hooks used are to short to connect if the seat is in full upright seating position. So seats need to tilted at least one click back to connect.
- The website shows the cover section between the brace and seat hooks as a two piece. This is not the case, it's a single piece.

Hack
- Might buy some universal car headrest back seat hooks to give more play so I can adjust the seats all to the most upright position.

Re: Aftermarket Cargo / Tonneau cover for T31


Hi All
I also installed one of these
I was disappointed to find the roller started further back than I wanted where the square covers are removed from the sides in the boot of a T31, which means the section toward the seats has a cover, but hangs down a lot and cannot be adjusted.

Thinking of making a bracket to move the mounting point further toward the back seats, will have to a think about how to do it and investigate how it would work. This would mean the section which clips to the seat head rests should sit with a fold in it and be less obvious and just hang down or get cut back

Will advise in due course

Thanks Andy

Hi Andy,

Do share the results of your bracket install, keen to see how you mod it. It's an odd bit of kit isn't it.

Cheers

One thing to consider Andy, is the maximum extension of the blind as it will determine how much closer to the rear seats you can move it before it does not clip into the catch points near the rear door.
