A proper harness and seat belt for the dog will achieve what you desire and should provide greater safety for the dog.

I only use the seatbelt harness attachment on long highway drives. For many years I indulged the dog by letting him keep his butt on the backseat and his paws on the center armrest, but a couple of emergency stops showed me this was not a great arrangement. My solution was to reengage training mode and a strong no to any attempt to put his paws or his head on the armrest. It took a couple of weeks to get him to stop trying, but he did. Who knew the center armrest cover is self-healing? After almost a year most of the nail depressions that covered it are now gone. I suspect the sun has acted much like a heat gun on plastic film to remove creases and bubbles.
Anyhow the above barrier looks pretty good, and I can see how it would be a solution for a hard-headed dog or young pup. Must admit it's a pretty good deal.
