In your other thread about the barriers, you mentioned that you found the ADR for cargo barriers and that yours would not meet the required standard. Just curious why does it not meet and have you thought about doing another version that does, or some formal testing to know what the current design is capable of handling?
Either way, I do really like your design and the way it only covers the gap above the seats, which is were protection is needed the most. My only hesitation is attaching something to the headrest poles where my kids heads usually are, just in-case something happens in the event of an accident.

Hey Tin, just wanted to point out a bit of an issue I've had with your barrier.
On a recent outback trip, the screw in knobs:

kept coming loose and falling out due to the corrugations, so put some locktite on them.
I went to remove the barrier the other day, and while I could undo one knob, the other held fast. More effort and then the knob started turning, but the metal bolt inside did not. So the plastic has given way to the bolt head inside (presumably).
Will eventually figure out how to take it apart, but in the meantime, I had to remove that entire bracket from the hand hold, to remove the barrier.
Suggest some type of locking nut to keep those knobs tight, and thus avoid the requirement for locktite.[SIZE=1]2010 150 GXL Ebony Diesel | ARB Delux Bar | ARB Bashplates | GME 3450 UHF | Bilstein/Dobinson lift | SA LED Lighting 185W Spotties | Bridgestone D697LT | Wet Seat covers | LeighW's Voltage booster | Tin75 Pet barrier | 3D Mats'n'boot protector | Onboard ARB CKMA12 Compressor | Rhino Pioneer Platform | Roadsafe Recovery Points | Airtec Snorkel[/SIZE]

A wave or spring washer would have done the same job and not caused the plastic to strip out. Most genuine cargo barriers use wave washers on these style bolts[LEFT]Silver 150 Facelift
