Great pics TexaspathF,

I am curious now what the guy from Nissan in UK is talking about with the5 ovalcut outs on each side... Funny thing is that I am not even interested in the cover.

Brad,

Scroll down the page on the following link:

Is that what you were looking for in terms of storage?

I don't think his solution will work anyway. He mentioned "shelf," so if it's like the Aussie version, then I don't want one. All I'm looking for is a simple, roll-up cargo cover that practically every US SUV has (take the Xterra's for example). I might have to check out the interior rear of the Armada and see how that one works. I think it would be simpler to modify the width in, rather than out.

Texas,

Thanks for the photos. That square opening behind the oval cover has to be for something.

I have a UK 2006 R51 PF and some of what the UK sales people say makes sense to me, so here's a picture of my load cover fitted (it's hard sections, that fold back rather than roll back)





By the way, you say there's no where to hide an SLR? The UK version has a cubby hole under the three middle row seats in the floor. Have you looked there? Also, the UK Pathys are built in Spain !!!

The load cover is supported by bars that drop into the oval cutouts

Ok fellow pathfinder owners... seems our efforts are not taking us anywhere with the UK design, their cargo panels are totally different. Now I have a couple of questions:
1)Why our panels have those rectangular indents? I don't think they are there just to put a screw.
2) What is that C grove and the other indent there? just to tease us.
3) Has someone in this forum talked to Nissan?
I went to the Nissan dealership on Saturday, the carcgo cover for the Xterra won't work because the way is installed there is totally different. There is no cargo cover available for the Armada. And I think the only cover that has a design that will work with our existing cargo panels (the rectangular indents) is the one for the Murano... but is too short!
So, thinking aver the weekend I came with two solutions that I would like to be hear by someone at Nissan:
1) Install hardware (done by Nissan of course) with the oval indents to adapt the UK cover in our PathF and Nissan make the cover (blinds) available in the US.
2) Desing a roll over cargo cover that will work with our cargo panels based in the design from the Murano.
I think the first solution would be cheaper and more feasible because we will be using an already existingpiece of equipment (somewhere in the world) that will alsowork with the third row up (I think is a two piece deal).
Those are just my thoughts and I will like them to be hear by someone at Nissan USA.
Thank you so much!

Confirmed from my UK contact as well:

HI STEVE,sorry been of sick with the flu got your mail with the
pics.looking at the pics this vehicle's trim don't have the same design as uk
models there is no ridge which is part of the side trims and has the
cut outs for the parcel shelf to locate into.sorry i can't help on this
inquiry as the design is completly different.


I wonder if we could order the plastic ridges for the panels? Unless they are molded into the side panels.
