Are they the same across the production run?
My car is a 53 plate facelift, so would one from an earlier model fit or does it have to be year specific?
-
I'm fairly sure they are all the same. :y

Ok, I've seen this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VAUXHALL-OMEGA-LOAD-COVER-CATCHES-/120673932522?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1c18ba14ea
But it says 94 - 99 :-/
-
pre, and facelift are different incompatible types
there are also different colours
-
There are at least two different types with a possible third out there!

It says OXO on buses but they don't sell it ;D ;D ;D
This one looks like the one that was on Mrs 2000 facelift.
The earlier one is also a little wider if I remember correctly also has different fastening locks :)

Oh ha ha :P ;D :P :D
So what your saying is that it has to be year/model specific then?

It doesn't look like the one in my '01 .. the bits that clip in at the sides look wider on mine; though that could just be the photo I suppose :)

Righty oh then, i'll keep an eye out for one from a 53 plate :y

And some have skew gears on the rods and some straight cut!

Pre facelift definitely don't fit. Made this mistake with my first one. ::)
I've got the original black side runners on mine, (03 build), with the load cover from a W reg
one.
:y

If you look at the tracks that the rods for the copver run in (part of the side panels in the boot) you will see a set of geared racks.....some are straight cut (90 deg to the line of boot) and some skewed (45/60deg to the line of the boot)

Preface straight cut with a wider holder, miniface a mixture of both, Facelift 45 degree cut and different housing, all from memory, if not the other way round.

Can you replace the whole assembly including runners through out the range? :question
