Here's another wild idea while we're on the subject of "tacky" improvisations.As far as a lip goes for spills,maybe this would work: go to hardware store or Wal-Mart and get ya some of those styrofoam insulated pipe sleeves people use for insulating their pipes in Winter.Their light weight,water proof, and easily cut to fit where ya need it.Lay out your plastic tarp,tuck where needed,put in your cargo mat, take some of the insulared pipe sleeves and cut for fit,lay along concerned edges where needed,then put duct tape between the gap where the insulated pipe cover meets the tarp.Tape together.That would give you an "edge" for spills or whatever. Just a thought.Might work?? Yea, I know that sounds like a "RedNeck " idea and way of doing it,but guess what........It is ! .....LoL cuz I am a "RedNek" ! Lol
I bet the dogs would chew up the pipe sleeves before they could do any good.

Here's mine. As you can see, I cut it to fit between the wheel wells, and short enough so that I could put in some crates ($3/ea at Wal-Mart with their back to school sale). The slight lip of the mat and the grippiness of the crate bottoms keeps them in place rock solid. I throw my trash in the back when I'm going to the dumpster, so the plastic mat keeps any drippings from a hole in a bag from getting on my carpet. It does make things on the mat slide around a little, though - that's the only negative.
It's a really quick and dirty thing, but it's been in place for 2 years now.

Just another idea for you. I have 3 labs also so the rear seats are always down. Sure it's a lot, but labs are skilled at rolling in poo, dead stuff, getting muddy, waiting to shake off until they get in, dog hair, etc. You could just go with a 4x6 mat if you wanted to keep it simple.
