ukwide Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Hi all, got the chance to buy a good parcel shelf from a 2001 car with the rear blind fitted, but will it fit the 2007 VTX+, any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers all Gary Quote
paul.h Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 If the shelf is for the estate, mark 1 C5 up to RPO 09428 has part no. 8794LE Storm, then has part no. 8794NW Tramonte which also is for the mark 2 C5 estate. The parts diagrams do not show the difference. However, the shelf brackets at each side have the same part nos. so it looks as if a shelf will fit all models of estate. The diagrams do not show a blind. If the shelf and blind are for the hatchback, the mark 1 and mark 2 C5s have different part nos. Mark 1 is 8796xx (xx being different depending on RPO no. and if a rear wiper is fitted) and mark 2 is 8342FG without a blind and 8342FH including the blind - the blind on its own is 8342FJ (mark 1 blind is 8342CY). Again the shelf brackets for mark 1 and 2 have the same part nos. The mark 2 is a bit longer than the mark 1 with a larger boot volume so maybe the shelf is longer, the diagrams show it being a round shape at the back where the mark 1 is straight. You can see the parts diagrams on the service.citroen website if you register - allowed as a member of a car club such as this - see the terms/conditions. Without registering you can only see car handbooks. Quote
