Dog guard
Folks.
Hopefully someone has the answer. A family member has recently bought a 2013 model D40. They searched for a dog guard and bought the BICE WALKYGUARD. However, it now appears it won`t fit because the headrests swivel forwards instead of sliding upwards. Also, it is way too tall even with the top bar removed. Does anyone have a working alternative that they will recommend. Many Thanks. |
There are several options:-
Volvo OEM dog guard. This is fixed to the back of the rear seats but I believe it needs a special Volvo tool to attach the fittings so probably best left to a main dealer to fit. Travall dog guard specific to the V40 (2012 onwards). Fits behind the rear seats and does not need any special tools and easily fitted and removed. I would suggest the Travall guard would be the best option and less expensive than the Volvo guard. Hope this helps. Steve |
Many Thanks.
Will pass the info on. |
I have the Volvo dog guard and although expensive (it's Volvo after all) it is good. You hardly notice its presence.

I just had the Volvo one fitted this morning, it is very good.

Just an update, folks.
Sister informs me that they have purchased the Trav-all guard. Excellent quality. Goes straight in with no fettling. Also, by using a couple of tie-wraps the guard stays in place if a seat-back is tilted forwards (load carrying) . Would the Volvo version , being fitted to the rear of the seat, not hit the front seat when tilted forward ? |
