does anyone have any pictures out there that might help?
I just removed my back seat(lower part) and can't figure out how to make a rear seat delete. it's not as easy as it was with the cobra i had of my friends newer cars(99 and later)The middle seems to be higher than the extremes.
has anyone done this before? how would you secure it in place?

thanks.
pd: some pics to help illustrate my problem.
quite dirty, huh?

Buy more black carpet and just upholster the entire back seat area in black carpeting. Get non-molded black carpet and then a steamer and work it as you lay it down. It will conform to the shape of the floor that way and you won't have to fab up anything either. Seriously. You could also get some thin particle board and mount that where the seat back is now and then carpet all of that as well. It would look as if you have soft carpet all over the back area. I am doing that to my hatch, just without the seatback part because I don't need that. I will have carpet running from the firewall to the spare tire well... All black and clean with no breaks in between. [Big Grin]

^^^^^^^^That is assuming you are removing the seat braces and the seat belts of course. ^^^^^^^^

why not use your trunk?it seems to work for every one else..it looks tacky with out the seats
,its a vert so weight saving is probably around
1-2 pounds in foam sponge [Roll Eyes] .do you need a arm rest? i got 2
one black other grey.
it'll probably look okay once you cut it out but seems like it will be a time eatter .
