does anyone have any pictures of a nice looking rear seat delete in a hatch?
i wanna do this because i never ever use the rear seat. i know that it wieghs almost nothing anyway but i like the look of it.
ok..so there's an enormous box in the way...but if you look at the pics you can see how I formed fitted the delete... The area under the box is just flat.
all you need is a 4X4 sheet of plywood, nails, automotive carpet and I used some heavy duty wire to put through two drilled holes in the back of the delete and wrapped them under the two little bolts under the hatch carpet..anyway...you'll get the idea....really easy to make...don't go buying some aftermarket expensive piece
Once you remove all the brackets and hardware, the weight is quite considerable. Remove all the sound deadening material and that is even more weight off the car. Don't have any pics of mine right now, looks like hell, becuase it was more recent than not.
thank you
that helps so much actually
i didnt think i would be able to have it all level like that. i thought i would need to put a step in it just thinking about it. now i know that i defs wanna do it.
the seatbelts are probably 5 pounds each also, then there is some brackets and bolts which are probably another 5 pounds.
i removed my seatbacks and the vinyl cover. i left just the base cushion and set my amps on each side and my 6x9's in the center. it looks better then the dropoff it had before with the base cushion gone.
ive been meaning to make it all level like the ones five-o-stang linked. do you guys just get all new hatch carpeting and cover it with one piece?
