Got a Luggage Cover at last

[Bowserman]

Finally got a luggage cover from the USA for my 400h. What seemed like a bargain at first ended up costing £209 delivered, including postage and £44 customs charges.

Still, its the right colour and works fine. Had to adjust the clips to fit the headrests, but all working fine.

Need to fit an interface for itunes music off the phone next, and it looks like the satnav digitiser is on its way out as the letters are out of alignment when trying to input a postcode. Is the 2007 model a different display screen as I may get a used one off eBay to try? They all seem to have the part number 86110-48210. Once I have a one to replace mine, I may try a digitiser repair or replacement on the other one.

Hi Chris, I'm also looking for a cargo cover and I sourced one from the states, but the rods on either side were the wrong size for slots. How did you make yours' fit? Mine was jammed in and required a bit of brutish treatment to get it out.

Another Chris.

Which rods? The one nes that fit into the rails?

Mine worked fine, it was just the clips that fit onto the headrests that I had to adjust. 

Works better than I thought, didn't realise it retracted automatically when the boot is opened.

It was while ago, but isn't there a spring-loaded protusion that locates either side in the track section? When I compared the one from The States to one that a friend has near here, there was a difference in the diameter of the bar/protusion; and that's why it got jammed in when I tried to fit it. It was a devil of a job to get it out again. That's the reason I was hoping to get a UK/ European version.

Yes, there are spring loaded bits at the door end. Looks like I was lucky then.
