Cargo Cover

My GL was missing the cargo cover when I picked it up (I bought it through my credit union & picked it up from the credit union). I finally got the cargo cover delivered today, but it's too short length-wise! I have the 3rd row of seats down & have the cargo cover attached to the mounting brackets up against the back of the 2nd row of seats. Is there a trick to getting the cargo cover to extend all the way to the brackets by the rear cargo door? It doesn't even reach to the mounting brackets that you would mount it to if the 3rd row were up.

I can't believe they sent me the wrong item, but it seems like it would be for the ML, not the GL due to it's short size. It does fit width wise, but not length wise.

You must have the wrong one. Mine fits all the way from the brackets up against the 2nd row.

Thanks; I figured they sent me the wrong one. Took 3 weeks to get the wrong one. Geez.

If you need one badly, I can loan you mine. I don't use it and you can give it back when you get the right one.

That is so very kind of you, thank you! They are sending me a shipping label to send the wrong one back & then sending me the right one. I've got a trip to Las Vegas on May 25 and I'd like to have it for that, since we'll be stopping along the way & I'd like to "hide" the luggage. They have promised me I'll have it by then, but if I don't, I may take you up on your generous offer.

Vegas for memorial day weekend sounds like fun. Keep your eyes open for NJ on the roads in Vegas. He will be the one driving the OB GL and folks would have sunglasses on to cut off the glare from his shiny car

You know, I didn't realize it was Memorial Day weekend until I went to book a hotel room. My sister, niece & I are going to see Bon Jovi at Mandalay Bay and yikes! The price of hotel rooms that weekend!!

I thought of NJ & will definitely keep an eye out for him

You will never see me on the strip over a holiday weekend...I stay in the suburbs with the tree lined streets...:-) I should have my shiny OB GL by then unless the train is switched to a siding somewhere in Kansas.

Enjoy your stay and please contribute to our economy while here...
