Hi

I purchased a Parcel Shelf cover off ebay a few days ago as mine was missing when I purchased my X5. It arrived today and I was looking forward to slotting it in, but to my surprise its about 2inches short either side. Is there a bracket misssing does anyone know. My X5 is a 3.0L sport Petrol. Any suggestions would be greatfully received.

Cheeers

I it for the E70 or the E53?

It did just list it as an X5 not stating the model Number and like a fool I jumped in without asking. It's can't be the E53 as it's way to short in width.

Cheers

hi, I'm also looking for a black 2003 e53 load cover, I was quite confused as to what one I needed but I was pointed in the right direction buy a fellow member and I am 99.9% sure it's the one with the bars and not the retractable one.

Correct, support bars with small gear wheel on each end also make sure you get the snap in housing at each end I have seen them for sale without.

Hi Dave, the snap in bits, are they located behind the rear seat, I'd say approx 4" long. If yes can you have the bits without the shelf as I think I have the snap in bits already fitted.

As I said I have seen the cover for sale without the snap in holders so I guess yes. If you have the snap in part then you fold the cover into them snap them down and you should have a working cover
