Damaged rolling parcel shelf

Have had my 2010 Qashqai +2 for a few years now it has been a reliable car and nice to drive.

However, a few weeks ago I heard a loud noise from the boot. One of the catches on the rolling parcel shelf had sheared off. (Attached an image below)

I have been trying to source replacement catches on ebay without much success (as it looks like there is a screw to remove the catch).

If I can't replace the catches then I assume I will have to source a used roller (around £150 on ebay).

Has this happened to anyone before? Any tips?

Try an online car breakers for whole unit or fabricate something suitable in metal.

These two places might be worth a try - Dave :)

This place seems to be cheaper than eBay : https://www.partsgateway.co.uk/nissan-p ... rcel-shelf

Vospers seem to stock individual parts :

Have it 3 D printed?

Cheers for the tips!

The simplest solution looks like to get a used roller like the ones like DaveBerlin suggested on the Parts Gateway. The only problem is, with shipping and import tax to Norway it gets a bit more expensive. Not ruling it out though. A locally sourced roller is around NOK 1500 (£140) plus delivery. The ones from Parts Gateway might end up being a bit cheaper. It is just a bit daft as my roller works great, its the retainer clip that is broken. :lol:

The clips from Vospers seem to fit another type of parcel shelf.

However, 3D printing might be a really good shout!

I will take the mechanism apart and see what can be done... will report back after a bit more investigation.

Cheers,

Have you actually been to a dealer and asked them for a clip? That's the simplest solution...
