Dog guard fitting
looks to me that you are missing the bottom tubular frame, which is what I have, but mine is 2010. I would use some heavy duty cable ties round the headrest supports/legs, as a short term fix. kr P

Dog guard fitting
Hi Mate, no top brackets holes, it fixes via bolts at the bottom edge & a tension thread onto the window ledge -window pillar, (re the window pillar as in mine I think this might mess up air bags. the only to bracket holes are the ones near the tailgate, I think for additional strapping of baby seat. send the ebay link for a looksea.

Cost of Service
Hi All, just had a couple of prices back for service on a 2010 2.5 cvt. the car is on 38000 miles but will be 4 years old next month, so prices are thus- 48k 4year service £382.00 or smaller anal type £249. had a price of well over £500, from the garage that sold the car new. I'm thinking I should just service by mileage not by age, any thoughts? cheers Pete

Electric seat/ easy in
no idea's? tried the spare remote, which must be programed different, as the seat stays as per the setting when the car is opened. good times.
