i was wondering if anyone has fabbed up a rear seat delete kit. i am looking for something to put over the rear seats so it looks nice and smooth so you dont see the holes that the seats sits in. i saw something like this on ebay for the mustangs and was wondering if anyone has seen it or fab it before. i have a cage in mine but still have the rear seats for apperance reason but want that smooth look now. any suggestions?

 

a sheet of 1/4" plywood covered in carpet?

 

Stock Eliminator racers remove the rear seat but they can't have bare metal. They just get some automotive carpet that matches the car's and cut to fit.

 

Building anything to cover the space would most likely weigh more than the seats themselves. I think the rear seats are just better left in.

 

cut and smooth down the rear seat brackets and put new covering over it, thats what i plan to do and their just will be a small hump left behind if any.

 

it wont weight more than the seats, i making out of 16 or 18 gauge alumiunum. i have all the fab tools at work to do this. i smoothed my firewall so i htink this will be ok but was jsut looking for some ideas. thanks for the info let me know if you all have any more

 

Anyone have a picture?

 

I dont post here at all I mostly just read, but i cant fall asleep so i thought i would help you out..I know it is not a 3rd gen but it is a pic of rear seat delete and it should give you some kind of idea

and there are more pics on this thread here and as you can read you pretty much have to know some skills with wood and measuring to do this because the dimentions will be somewhat different between different cars

 

cool man looks great and thanks for the pics it will help. thats bascially what i was looking for. i have to jsut cut around some roll bars and other things but that gives me a great start or reference.

 

Has anyone thought of making those functional like the ones in the Corvettes? It would take more fab work but that is what this thread is in right?? Just a thought.

 

functional....in what way?

 

When i posted this i also posted it in body/interior and someone put a link in that thread for a company that does this kit and they are starting to offer the compartments like the vettes have.

that is the link

 

hmm....i didn't know that vettes had compartments there. i've only been in a vette once, though. it was a z06 and i got to drive it....it was nice!

 

i think the older vettes had a storage compartment back there


by the way looks great

 

Here's the ones I made for my car. Not really hard at all...took a couple hours. I used 1/8" hardboard. I picked up the carpet at an upholstry shop.

 

I did the same thing, just filled it with stereo stuff, but i did work around an 8 point cage...
