Hello Ron,

BAS International have those in stock, prior to covering in the customers choice. I'm sure they would sell one if approached and of course they come with the correct metal fixings to fit properly.

Do you have one currently fitted or without one ?? The reason I ask is that they are quite easy to make from thick card or similar in ply.

Regards.

It is certainly doable, Ron, hopefully you have the 3x clips that locate in to the top of the metal (body) parcel shelf ?? If so, you are home and dry - the card / ply does not need to be too thick.

Good luck.
