RE: Dogs in our cars, and mud flaps

["Craft, Nick" <ncc@scr.siemens.com>]

On occasion our German Shepherd cross Lucy gets to ride in the back of
our 200Q (leather seats). Here's what I do:
Get an old queen size comforter (Duvet?).
Drape it over the back seat so that it goes over the headrests and
covers the entire seat.
Get 2 of those elastic things with the hooks on the end (I can't
remember the names of things at this time in the morning), and wrap them
around the comforter-covered headrests, hooking them onto themselves, so
that they firmly attach the comforter to the headrests.

Works a treat, but I don't remember if a 4000 has rear headrests.

Cheers,

Nick Craft
