Just to help those who have this need. Recently acquired my new e-Niro and the above kit was not available via the dealer so I researched myself and found two really good products and providers who were most helpful.

• Titan Covers for boot liner. Laser cut for e-Niro. Perfect.
• Dog Guard ATHAG / Guardsman - https://www.guardsmandogguards.co.uk/product-category/kia/kia-niro-2016-onwards/

any questions please post.

Thanks for the tip.

How easy/fast is it to put the dog guard in and take it out?

Thanks for the tip.

Mine is in permanently only and to install took 25 mins. Main fiddly bit is feet on side / edge or guard but once that is done easy to do. If I was more dexterous then genuinely 10 to 15 mins.
Because of the way it is attached I think to pop seats down you would need to remove It I think unless the guard meshing stays in place when you remove the vertical metal rods that attache to the retainer loop son base of boot.

The Titan boot liner looks good. Does it make access to the underfloor storage difficult?

I have the Titan boot liner with the Kia official rubber boot mat siting on top, as I wanted a robust boot floor for sliding bags in and out. Yes this arrangement does not make access to the underfloor storage area more difficult. The most likely reason I would need access to the underfloor area is to get at the charging cable to use a public charging point (I don't need this for home charging). One possible solution to this is shown in the Kia tweaks thread on this site. I decided maintaining the interior finish of the boot area had priority over ease of access. It's just a personal choice.

No it does not. Still easy to access.

Hi.
Sorry to resurrect an old thread. I'm interested in a decent boot liner and looked at the Titan website. I just wondered if it would be possible to take a pic of the liner in your Niro? Thanks

Just to add an extra note to this, which might already be obvious to many readers:

I’ve been looking for a decent dog guard, and previously had 3 Travall guards as they’ve always been a perfect “rattle-free” fit. My wife asked where I got the previous dog guards from; checked their website and ordered a dog guard for our new e-Niro. It doesn’t fit though, the Travall guard is for the ICE and PHEV Niro models only. The long hooks that connect to the seat back fixing points and hold the guard down, are at least 2in too long, because the seat back fixing points are higher on the e-Niro than in the Niro.

Just thought that might be of use for anyone looking for a dog guard.

Edit - I’ve just noticed this is quite an old thread. Oh well, not to worry!!
