A local scrappy has one of the retractable load guards that go on the back of the rear seats, I want to get it to allow me to carry more during a tip run, or when we go camping.
Only issue I can't seem to get it off. Is it just supposed to pull off or is there some magic spell I need to use?
If anyone is wondering what I mean there's one on eBay, item number 123189083430

It just pushes to one side and drops off.
Can't remember which side though.

Just a firm push, no big 'ammers required.

Re: Citroen C5 retractable load/dog guard net.
I will, in the morning, check how it comes off on my C5 estate. I know it CAN be removed, the seats to have to be down, and I think (but, until I check, I am not sure) it goes from right to left.

Yes, just slides off sideways, to the driver's side I think. Just need to tilt the seat enough so it can slide out the door opening.

Re: Citroen C5 retractable load/dog guard net.
Don't forget to unscrew the two brackets from the backs of the seats as well. And taking a photo or two of how they fit on the backs of the seats beforehand would be a good idea.

Hmm, maybe they all do.

my current C5 has one bracket
It isn't an estate like the last one.
Seats were nicked from an exclusive.

I have just checked, and it is from left to right to dismount the guard nets.
