Slightly off subject, is the cargo divider the same as the commercials version?
I'm hoping to move the commercial load divider behind a temporary folding seat if at all possible.
Anyone know??

Vic, you need to slightly pull the door frame inwards towards the centre of the boot area......just do it in stages, pulling evenly so that it meets the latch.
Nowt wrong with yours, just needs an enthusiasts touch to a LR design

MacLeod 313 if you have the cage door on the nearside (so you aren't opening to a live carriageway ) it does not swing back with as much freedom as the offside fitment. You have to 'pressure' the door frame to the position that allows the latch to catch.21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Yes, you are right and already had a NEAR MISS with Frodo trying to bolt when I open the cage, mid air I caught his collar....
TBH, once bitten and all that.....It wont happen again.............
The main reason for NOT using the Near Side for the cage is the Power Socket, I use that alot and Frodo being distructive would chew anything, but a fair noticable point Rich
