Hi guys,
I just got '12 EL. I have 2 German Shepherds. The dog barrier(metal barrier to keep the dogs confined to the back) I used for my Tahoe(which I traded in) doesn't seem to fit my Expedition. Tahoe had 2nd row bench, Expy has 2nd row bucket seats. I think the barrier I have is a Kennel Aire. I think. Does anyone have any suggestions? Brands or places to look at?

Thanks,

Mike

The one I have doesn't fit the ceiling very well plus it left a huge crease in my old Tahoe. I would like to avoid that if possible. I could get an extension to help with the gap between the bucket seats.

@ Doug
I've looked at the Tubular design online. Alot of the reviews mention "rattling" as a negative. I HATE rattles. LOL But I may have to try it.

you could always find where it rattles and fix it, shove somethind in tube to make it not be able to wobble etc. wouldnt be hard to fix a rattle just most people are lazy and want everything perfect for cheap. modify it to make it work...after all thats what this site is all about...modifications

I used pipe insulation wrap for the uppermost where it affixes to the overhead. Although a crease when removing, not as sharp as the barrier itself.

The tubular barrier works great. It rattles "less" than my previous mesh metal barrier.
