I have my eye on the Cargo Kit and have made the following assumptions about it:
- Its basically the same topper as the SUV Kit and can be wrapped the same way.
- It doesn't include the SUV Kit rear seats or airbags, thus it costs less.
- It doesn't include the roll bar which I think is a safety requirement for installing the rear seats. No seats means no need for the roll bar and no intrusions into the cargo space. I am assuming that structurally, the topper does not require the roll bar. Eliminating the roll bar saves cost.
- The topper can be ordered either with glass (like the SUV Kit topper) or solid composite side panels. The latter might make the most sense as without rear passengers, why would you need that rear glass? Well you might need it to help remove blind spots. Perforated window vinyl allows you to see through the glass from the inside, but the graphics are not as sharp as solid vinyl. I think cost wise this is close to a wash either way.
