Abstract: A barrier 1 comprises stanchion members 2 and guard elements 3. The stanchion members 2 are secured to the guard members 3 using clips 4 in order to create a robust, substantially planar barrier to divide a vehicle cabin space. A rear seat of a motor vehicle incorporates a backrest 5 in which headrests are normally secured through sockets 6. Thus, when the headrests are removed, these sockets 6 become available to accommodate entry segments 7 of the stanchion members 2. This mounts the barrier 1 on the backrest 5. The barrier may be used to partition the luggage/cargo area from the remainder of the cabin.
