rear seat removal

ByPopularDemand · August 8th, 2007, 11:15 AM

Well in a moment of frustration from losing, last night I decided to rip out the rear seats...well it looks like ass back there and I don't wanna spend 150 bucsk to make it look decent with a delete kit. Are there any other options?

put your seats back in

or make your own delete kit.

or buy the used one I have

i'm sure it's just common sense. I've never done it but it can't be that hard at all, just look at it and think about how you're gonna do it, measure a couple things...puchase supplies.
if you wanna be really cool, turn your rear seat into a wall of speakers. yeaahhh......

Get the thinnest wood you can find and do your best to draw the outline of the seats and cut away. next cover them in fabric. Then just Velcro them in place. I have it for my car, which I will be selling soon.I would sell it to you but I'm I'm ganna use it to get rid of the seats on my next car.

Hmm sounds like a plan...home depot here I come

Murderjetz · August 9th, 2007, 01:27 PM

if you're up for it, you could make a sort of trap door in it, and have a little compartment under there for storage. like for a nitrous bottle or something.

ByPopularDemand · August 9th, 2007, 01:46 PM

Dude that is an awesome idea...prolly more storage than the vert trunk anyway

gooberhead320 · August 9th, 2007, 02:00 PM

or just run a drug lab from the back of your car

Murderjetz · August 9th, 2007, 02:12 PM

lol that could work too.

ByPopularDemand · August 9th, 2007, 02:33 PM

Im so doin that...I get paid tomorrow too lol. Oh and can you paint plywood with the spray can paint. How will it look

gooberhead320 · August 9th, 2007, 02:39 PM

do you not plan on carpeting it?

ByPopularDemand · August 9th, 2007, 02:43 PM

Um maybe...im undecided on the carpet, but it looks horrid with noyhin coverin it

If you have some cash to throw down on it, the aluminum rear seat deletes are 300 bucks. I'm sure you've seen them:

if you wanna shave a little more weight, I got some cheap lightweight racing seats from here:
http://www.andysautosport.com/ford/1..._seats/yonaka/

it was 350 for the pair including the brackets, and I threw the factory seats on craigslist for $300 and already have people interested.

those two mods together should shave around 80 lbs max. and I would definately consider getting seats if you delete the rear seat. seams like ripping 40 lbs of weight out right on top of the tires and having the extra weight of the factory seats up front isn't a very good weight ratio.

ByPopularDemand · August 9th, 2007, 02:51 PM

I want racing seats but...I i cant find sone really cheap ones my seats will have to do

Rohis · August 9th, 2007, 03:04 PM

I hear ya, cars cost too much money

if you can manage to save the money though, it will be worth it in the end. it's one of the best ways to shave weight.

ByPopularDemand · August 9th, 2007, 03:47 PM

Yeah it would be a plus. I want an 8.8 and gears first tho
