Default name of that bar that connects rear seat belts?

whats the name of that bar that bolts into the rear seatbelts that runs across the top of the car? when its hot, and i go in or out of a driveway, i can hear my rear top section of my car flex. i know its flexing cause i can hear my CF duckbill making noise. do you guys think this bar would help stop that noise and stiffen it up?

do you think bars like this in general are more for getting rid of noises/rattles in your body? or do they really stiffen things up?

I say they dont do much, but im no expert.

Dont waste your money, im sure you could
spend it on something that you need, or even want
and would benifit you more then this.

I think some people use them for their camera mounts,
but I really doubt this will have any effect that you will
notice. It wont stop any rattles, I think it would be a better
chance that it would make more. Just secure your duckbill
better, or cusion it where it touches. You could use some
double sided tape or something so that the duckbill wont
rattle.

the duckbill doesnt really rattle. it only does it when its really hot outside. it sounds like stretching or something. def not a rattle.

well, if that bar did what it was made to do (stiffen)
it would only cause more noises.

Metals not going to streatch. I guess it could contract
and expand, but I think it would have to be very hot,
I mean like melt the dashboard hot to do that.

And if it was expanding in the hot weather, wouldnt trying
to prevent it create more problems like stress on the parts expanding?
