ALT Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I don’t suppose such a thing as a horizontal tonneau cover exists for the Zed? I’d quite like to keep my stuff out of sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev-the-Rev Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 They do indeed. Nissan do one for around £90 iirc. Give Holdcrofts a bell, but you will need to get the discount code first from one of the mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbs Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Not aware of a horizontal tonneau, only the vertical one that fits under the arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digsy Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 These boys are right. There's the little horizontal one behind the strut brace at the back of the rear window which you should have as you've got a UK GT. Then there's the optional vertical one which fits inside the strut brace which is mentioned above. Are you actually looking for something horizontal from the speakers back to the strut brace? If so, I've never seen anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I fitted mine last week £105 46p from mjp with delivery and vat, doddle to fit but in my opinion should have been designed with a rubber seal around the edge as there is still a small gap all the way round.It hides things in the back though.

ALT Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 There's the little horizontal one behind the strut brace at the back of the rear window which you should have as you've got a UK GT. I have the virtical Tonneau, which I got from Nissan for about 95 quid. I don't have a horizontal one, despite being a GT. You can see into the back part of the boot with the hatch closed. Also anything white (e.g. shopping bags - yes it does get to go to Tesco) reflects onto the back window. Not the view I want when I look in the rear view mirror. So if there is something I can get to sort this out, I want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one that fills in the gap between the back of the window and the strut brace, attaches to the tailgate and comes as standard, but you can get a replacement IIRC they are about £50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I went to the wrong place I'll shop around in future I went to the dealer who advertised one on the forums Though seeing in the boot is nearly impossible I have a small pale holdall with bits in it like a foot pump and a torch I sometimes need at work and this could be seen.But I cunningly disguised it with a black bin bag,and now it blends into the dark nicely.

jim Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I didn't know about the small horizontal cover that fits onto the rear hatch. Does anyone know if I could fit it to an 03 JDM? I made my own vertical tonneau cover for a fraction of the price that Nissan quote, and from what others have said, I reckon it fits better! It's just a matter of cutting a template from cardboard, using that to cut a piece of MDF to fit, then covering it with suitable black material. I also added a Z badge to mine.

Sarnie Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I think most people on this thread don't know the difference between verticle and horizontal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I need one of those as well. My JDM didn't have one - I think because I had a lot of aerials around the back window for the TV. I would like one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
