€¨Passengers should not ride in the third-row with the shelf installed. For full dimensions, load ratings, and other important details for this product, please refer to the Product FAQ tab.

What is the load/weight capacity for the Rear Roof Shelf?

The shelf is rated to 10kg, evenly distributed across the shelf. We recommend it as storage for lightweight and soft cargo. If you need help imagining what that looks like, here's an example:

Can we still use the third-row seats with the Shelf installed?

Any modifications to your vehicles third-row area may impact its compliance with safety regulations. We do not recommend carrying passengers in this space after modifications as it presents a dangerous safety hazard.
 
Additionally, some modifications that affect passenger capacity may require certification (mod-plating) to ensure your vehicle remains compliant with your state or territorys regulations. We recommend checking with your local transport authority for specific requirements.

How big is the Rear Roof Shelf?

The shelf measures 1028 x 460mm. 

Is the Rear Roof Shelf compatible with a cargo barrier?

Yes, the shelf is compatible with the KAON Light Cargo Barrier.

What are the clearances when installed?

Clearances when installed (subject to variances of up to +/-5mm): 

Roof to shelf base: 
160mm

Shelf base to floor: 
665mm at minimum - please note the MU-X has a sloped floor and the distance towards the rear of the vehicle will be greater. 

Why does the MU-X Rear Roof Shelf include an additional Side Molle Panels, unlike some other KAON Shelves?

The Isuzu does not include third-row grab handles or captive mounts in the roof, which we traditionally use to secure our Rear Roof Shelves.

Instead, the MU-X shelf is supported by a bracket that attaches to a factory bolt in the D-pillar, along with the support panels which attach to the factory cargo cover mounting point while resting inside the cup holders.  

How do the Side Molle Panels work with the curtain airbags?

The Side Molle Panels are designed to allow unobstructed deployment of the factory curtain airbags. That said, we do not recommend any passengers ride in the third-row seats with either of these products installed. 

What is required to mount the Side Molle Panels?

The Side Molle Panels for the Isuzu MU-X will require unencumbered access to both the factory cargo cover mounting points and the third-row cupholders. The best thing to do if you are unsure is to watch the video or read the fitting instructions; both are available on the product listing.

Can the rear cargo pull out cover still be used?

No, the side molle panels uses the same holes where the cover sits.
