warning to 100 series owners with with cargo barriers

On tuesday i had to go to a job to collect some left over materials. No worries she'll all fit in the back.

My cruiser is fitted with a cargo barrier, so i tossed all the soft stuff (airconditioning ducting) in and closed the upper door...mmmm a little compression taking place but the ducting is soft so she be right......

next morning clicked the remote to unlock...mmm uh uh...not unlocking, tried again and again...key wouldnt work either....how the hell do i get in to get this stuff out ( i wanted to go to play yesterday afternoon and needed to put my toys in there) so how do i get in? to get the stuff out......i thought the lock was stuffed

I tried the remote again and again, and also the key, to no avail.

after a accepted the fact that i was going to be late getting to the club, i surveyed the problem and figured that the ducting may have been holding the inside locking latch in the locked position. The ducting was from floor to roof and squashed in....so how do i get in...i must be able to get in without having to remove the barrier i think tomy self...

I was able to slip my arm around the side of the barrrier and reposition some of the compressed ducting and sure enough it my efforts eventually let me in.

The locking latch is in the outer position when its in the unlocked mode. any slight pressure on it locks it....as the duct was pressing against the latch it would not unlock

if the back was filled to capacity with solids or something shifted in transit , I might have had to remove the barrier to gain entry...

I wont fall for this again
