Concealing 3rd row seatbelts

Has anyone found a product or decided a way to conceal the third row seat belts?

They get in the way when loading and the dogs like to play with them too. Figured someone would have come up with a plastic cover of sorts as I'm sure the belts get in the way for many, but nothing found from googling.

Has anyone seen anything designed for purpose or do I have to make my own? Figure there are a few DIY ways of doing it.

I've used a piece of plastic drainpipe sliced lengthwise to cover the seatbelt and stop the dog chewing it. Not elegant but it works. Land Rover 80" station wagon (1949)

Thats a good idea. Thanks. Once I replace the shredded belts I'll do similar. Pretty sure I have a spare length of slim drainpipe somewhere. It will certainly do until I come up with something else (if I ever do)

I did mine using 40mm drain pipe, I used the stuff that gets glued and its harder.
Sliced it longwise with a saw and it doesn't leave a gap, you can then slide the belt in and out.
If you have to replace the belt, sit down before you look at the price

Thanks. Yeah both belts got shredded. Dogs never have done anything like that before but don't trust they won't do again. Drainpipe is a good plan. I got a replacement set from a breakers, look box fresh so I'm happy with them. £100 so not too bad. Still a pain, more painful having to strip the car down though.

I know your pain, had to replace a dog chewed belt.....Weirdly the best solution I found was using the blade sheath from my bosch electric hedge trimmer. it fitted absolutely perfectly, is flat, hard plastic and the dogs have stopped eating through any more seatbelts....

something like this:
