Cargo cover option

[Dude]

Yup. All BS, CMS or not.

The OP that I saw first installed the Powerty cover did not have the CMS and did not mention “having to pull the cover out by going UNDER the rear brackets” which is why I asked if you had CMS.

That owner (without CMS) stated “did not apply any adhesive or drill any holes” and also said “have to be gentle using the cargo cover”. So could have just been a decision he made which is why I asked if you had CMS.

Just to be clear, "under the rear brackets" means the Powerty brackets you adhere to the rear.

I don't like that the top edges aren't parallel to the ground (like in the install video on Amazon), but to keep the little hooks in play/working you have to angle them up (like in the photo). So even if you have the CMS flipped open, pulling the cover out and under the cover brackets still doesn't interfere with the CMS.

I really like it. May try to add some brackets of my own so that the look is a bit more esthetically pleasing.

The Powerty cover for the Escape works quite well. Not perfect, but pretty close.

The brackets (where the cover attaches to the head rest post) are the weak point being a rather flimsy bit of plastic.

The angle of the cover holder has to change, but it is functional. I used a double layer of tape so that it conformed better to the BS angle (more vertical, less angled than the Escape).

Less than $100 during the July Prime Day sale. I think it was worth it.

We have the CMS. Now, the best of both worlds.

When using, you have to pull the cover out by going UNDER the rear brackets as the rear opening is too tight above the bracket (and you'll scrape things). Same with releasing the cover from the brackets: pull back and release from UNDER.

I believe you have the rear mounting brackets upside down!

These brackets are installed upside down and on the wrong side. This is the correct way to mount them. They mount this way and have locking tabs on the back side. You have to pull the weatherstrip back and the tabs lock under the factory trim piece. This is the correct cover

Thanks for the reply. I mounted them the way you see it b/c I bought the cover for the Escape and thus had to make do with brackets meant for the Escape. A cover for the Bronco Sport wasn't available back then, so no correct brackets.

Cheers.
