We just purchased two new dog crates for our miniature dachshunds.
These crates are designed to be secured in place on a vehicle seat
using the vehicles seat belts. In our case we wanted to locate and
secure the crates on the back seat of our 1980 West Canadian. The
rear belts as most of you will know are only the lap belt variety.
Unfortunately the belts are just a "schooch" too short to secure the
crates. So we went looking for a couple of seat belt extenders. They
are a very difficult item to locate locally. We did locate some at
our local VW dealer but the connectors were incompatible with the
stock ones in our van. We even approached a couple of auto upholstery
shops to see if they would stitch up a pair if we provided the
hardware  but were turned down as they cited liability issues if the
extenders failed in a crash ... also two 'seat belt' web sellers said
that they couldn't guarantee that their extenders would fit out belts ...

... and so we turn to the list to help us locate extenders for my '80
rear seat lap belts ... all suggestions welcome except for selling
the dogs and using kitchen twine or duct tap for the purpose ;>

peace
