Modification to turn M3 trunk (w/ back seats down) into a dog crate?

[rpiotro]

How does that work as a restraint in case of a collision? Is is strong enough to prevent your dog from crashing through it at 60 MPH?

I put my dog in a restraint harness with a belt that connects to a seat belt buckle. Can you do something like that?

UPDATE: Cheap, workable, imperfect solution

I decided against the device above, since it would require me to close the trunk with my dog inside it. Instead, I decided on this cheap ($18) option that works well enough and that I can install from the inside of the car as needed:

It provides nearly the precise dimensions needed for the Model 3; I’d love it to be a half-inch taller, but it’s reasonably tight on the sides. Certainly not the best for security (in that any motivated dog could likely escape), but I’m hopeful it can provide a safe and secure environment for my dog while I’m driving (with respect to her anxiety, hopefully eliminating her motivation to escape). In addition, it neatly fits in the trunk when the seats are folded back up:

I’m still hoping a custom piece is made for the Model 3, but I’ll roll with this for now and provide any updates that might help anyone in a similar situation.

Where can I get this dog separator. I think it's perfect for our dog in the back on the M3. What's it called Please. [email protected]
