New GL 350 CDI Owner

[IJ1010]

Hi everyone,
I have just bought a GL 350 2011, after years had enough of Land Rover and reliability issues.
I am hoping that some of you good people could assist with these queries;
I need to buy a dog guard and have been unable to source one to fit ?
I need to get a tow bar fitted with electrics ?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks John

Hi and welcome, nice cars the GL

I need to buy a dog guard and have been unable to source one to fit

Does it have one built into the rear parcel shelf? Many MB do, the give away will be clips in the ceiling



Search this "Mercedes GL dog guard" on E-Bay and hundreds come up

I need to get a tow bar fitted with electrics ?

Should be easy, Witter will do one

The dog guard fro my R Class used the fittings you referred to and attached to the loops in the floor using straps, but it's a separate thing from the load cover.

Ahhh, My W204 has it built into the load cover, it just slide out and clips in, also has clips behind the front seats so you can seal off the entire load bay with the seats down

I've seen similar in my mate's Merc estate ... IIRC it automatically lifted somehow (when it worked )

Mine was like this

My Vauxhalls (hangs head in shame...) had these, wouldn't use them to keep a dog in check though

I liked my Vauxhalls .... if they still made a RWD car like my Senators & Omega, I'd have another
