I'll be on holidays in the next week or two, as soon as the missus has #2, so I've decided its time to fit a few goodies I've got in the shed including the full size Milford cargo barrier I picked up a while ago. Unfortunately, it didn't come with any instructions...it doesn't look too hard to fit, but at the same time I don't want to muck it either. I've searched the net, as well as looked at the pics on this site, but it doesn't really give any good pics of the finished product, ie where the bottom mounts go, where to drill the holes for the top mounts etc.
Any links, help or advice would be appreciated, or even a photocopy of the original instructions even better...

Cheers

Maybe a long shot but try Milford, say you got the barrier with no instructions and could they Fax/ E-mail another set.

They are not that hard to fit, fold up your rear seats to give you a bit more room, put the barrier in place with brackets fitted and you may find they will line up with something, from memery the bottom ones use holes that are already there.

mrdesmo,

Think I've got the destructions here somewhere, do you have access to a fax. Or we could scan them, and email to you.

You need a 22mm hole saw too, and the will to cut this size holes in your pride and joy.

Hooroo...

Hi Bob,
Bloody decent of ya...sorry, no fax, but if you would be so kind to scan them and email to jld@spin.net.au that would be very much appreciated :-)
Yep, have the will....I fitted snorkels to my last two Hilux's, cutting the holes in the gaurds..once with a jigsaw, once with radial hole saw...now that was scary!!!
Thanks again

I have one in my 80 series. If you like I can take some photos for you. I bought it secondhand so no instructions.

Hi Penguin,
Yes please...most helpful, if you could get a shot of the whole thing then maybe some close ups of the mounts would be tops...
