What is the TrunkKarrier?

TrunkKarrier is a replacement for the original wooden paneling in the tailgate of Volkswagen Transporter, Caravelle, and Multivan vans. It offers various anchor points for straps, L-track accessories, a bottle opener, and more.

What improvements does it offer?

  • Adds 8 L-track anchor points (rings not included) for securing loads or hanging accessories like a shower curtain.
  • Multiple slots for horizontal and vertical straps.
  • Several 10mm holes for attaching objects like QuickFist clamps or LED lights for trunk illumination.
  • Compatible with the original trunk handle and electronic opener.
  • Includes a bottle opener — what we call the "Key to Heaven".

How is it attached?

It mounts using the factory anchor points. You can use plastic clips or a combination of clips and threaded rivets with screws in the corners.

What tools do I need to install it?

  • Torx T25 (to remove the handle)
  • Plastic pry tools or thin flat screwdriver (to remove factory staples)

What is it made of?

Made of 2mm thick aluminum, powder coated in satin black. Weight is approximately 3 kg.

Which vans is it suitable for?

Fits Volkswagen T5, T6 and T6.1 Transporter, Caravelle, and Multivan vans.

Recommendations:

We recommend upgrading your gas struts. If your van originally came with a bike rack, it likely already has stronger struts. For setups with both a bike rack and the TrunkKarrier, we use a pair of 1200 NM gas struts.

LED Strip Kit

You can now add a LED Strip Kit to your TrunkKarrier. It includes a 1-meter black aluminum profile and a waterproof LED strip pre-installed.

Add the LED Strip Kit to your order here.

Let us know if you want it “Ready to install” (we’ll drill the holes for you) or “Free” (no drilling, so you can customize placement).

What's included:

  • 1x 1M black aluminum profile
  • 2x End caps for the profile
  • 1x 1M waterproof LED strip
  • 4x Screws, nuts, and washers

* Choosing the “Free” option means the profile will come undrilled.
** Basic wiring is needed. No switch is included, as setups vary by van.

Important:

If your van doesn’t have the switch bracket (see image 4 in product gallery), you may need to order part no. 7E0858099 from a VW dealer or online.
