We have used it like that in both our Honda CRV and BMW X5 , the legs are adjustable so you just fit them to the necessary height but it works just fine keep in mind In both cases I had the 2nd row folded down so the dogs could enjoy the entire back area.

I don't think it will work as the suctions on the bottom need to have an even flat surface, and I'm not sure if that will be possible right behind your front seats. I have a hard enough time keeping it stable and upright in the back of my SUV where the floor is fairly even.

It depends on the make of your vehicle. We have a Buick Enclave and it works great but we keep the dogs behind the second row.

You'll have to measure from the floor board to the roof to see if its tall enough. You may also have to add an additional cross bar depending on size of dog.

Yes. This was the best money I have spent. I love mine. Added an extra bar so I can move it from vehicle to vehicle

I don't think it will expand high enough. It is designed to go behind the rear seat in an SUV.

Just guessing here, but I would think you would have to first release the strap from the front headrest in order to let the dog in. Once the dog is in you could replace the strap over the headrest. I think this should work!

It will work fine if your car seat is front-facing. If the seat is rear-facing, then you need to add something to the top of the protector to hold it in place. We sewed a flat strap with a plastic loop to each side of the top of the seat protector (already had one lying around the house). Put that around the headrest to keep it in place. I love the protector on my fabric seats. We just bought a leather upholstered car, and I am concerned about the reports of the plastic backing melting into the leather seats -- may have to find a different option for that vehicle.

My nine pound dog can see out the side window and front windshield. I have bucket seats in the front and it is too far away for him to stick his head out, unless he would stand and lean toward the window. I don't think that would be a safe option.

I don't see why it would not work. You might have the mat move on you some. I have noticed that the passenger side moves some when it is not seated correctly on the floor. The posts on the drivers side keep the mat from slipping when driving.

I have a 2010 Ford F250 and the barrier keeps my two 60+ lb dogs in the back seat. There are small gaps on both ends but it does the job.

You tie it to the front seats so you could tie it low or high, whatever you need. If you tie it tightly I don't think your dog would be able to nose his way under it. The trick is to tie it tightly to the 2 front seats. Good luck ~

I don't really understand your question. Do you want to put the ramp on the seat for your dog to get into the car? If your seat slants the ramp will slant. It needs to be put on a flat surface. Otherwise I guess it would work. I use it in my Ford Escape truck. It is very easy to fold and store.

Yes, but you might want to invest in stronger bungees. We have two Labs, and so far the EZ Pet Barrier has worked perfectly, even with the smaller bungees that came with it.

Hello BethAnn. Not sure if this will attach correctly if you dont have a separate headrest. Reason is, I clip the upper strap around and under the headrest and it attaches easily but securely like that. What makes the upper strap secure is the fact the part of the seatback near the headrest serves as a stop so the strap doesnt rise up and slide off... If your car has a good seam or indent at that spot, it may work. Otherwise, it may slip off which would make the carrier unstable and fall forward..If your pup is not big or heavy and it doesnt pull on that upper strap, it may keep it in place if you pull it tight and down toward the back of the seat more. My Doggie is just about 7 lbs. Perhaps you may retrofit this by somehow locking in the upper with the lower strap to secure it from sliding up and off ...When I have my pup in it I have to say it is a wonderful safe ride. I dont use a collar but a doggie harness and it clips right to the seat. Doggie can not jump or fall out. The only thing with using it is when someone wants to ride in the front with me, I have to remove the seat. Never tried the back seat. You might have more luck that way...and it might be a tighter fit. I think I would try it if the return policy (should it not work) is fair and inexpensive...I love mine. Good Luck!

No I have not tried it in a car and know it will not work with this product. I do have a "Solvit Tagalong Pet Booster Seat", for my Yorkie and fits and works perfectly in front passenger seat. The Outward hound Front carrier is just for me to carry her in front of me when doing errands or when it's raining out. The only thing I do not like about this product (medium in size) is too small or tight for my 5 pound puppy to move around in.

I just checked it. The straps that hold it in place can be slipped out allowing you to fold the piece down or under. I've never done it because my dog slips her head through the sides of that panel to get to AC. But your idea is better... It will work as suggested allowing that area to remain open. (I never did it because she, the dog, has a tendency to back seat drive then by attempting to join us in front seat!).

Maybe not a good idea, depends also on the size and space of your car and obviously the size of the dog...LOL. Wouldn`t recommend using this for that, the material is very stretchy.

It would in my Acura MDX SUV. I have a 15lb dog that can't get out. This barrier adjusts up and down and the sides spread out. Really depends on the back of your vehicle.

I don't think this is intent of this crate, but I guess you could run the seat belt through the top strap and around the crate to secure it. It would definitely be better than not having the pet secure. It would be better it you were able to set in the back of an suv on a flat surface and then secure.

The design idea behind this safety belt is anchoring the dog to the anchors already installed in cars today to fit a child safety seat. Since the law requires these seats in a back seat, the anchors are there. If you have anchors installed on your auto for a passenger seat, it would work. The harness straps connect from the dogs hips between the seat and back to the anchors. Slide your hand between the seat and the back and you can feel the "loops or rings" the child seat connects to. These anchors are connected to the auto floor in some manner so they are permanent. I have never seen these for a passenger seat. Lots of words to say no, but you never know how each auto is built.

Don't blame it on the dog. My dog is 20 pd, a Cocker spaniel and easily jumps through to front sets. There is a gap on both sides by headrest. Toyota Camry.
