Re: Anyone do a nice !back seat setup... Yeah, with the exception of the bolt "platforms" for the lower seat buckets... everything is carpeted. Had mine out since it was new <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Great place to carry ET Streets <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Anyone do a nice !back seat setup... Hi WILWAXU. What's the weight savings w/back seat removed, & is it a big deal time-wise to remove it? Thanks. WJ. ttt <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Anyone do a nice !back seat setup... I took my back seats out yesterday and to cover up the humps where the seat bottoms were sitting on, I Covered it nicely with electrical tape. I then took the rear mats and covered the big dip to give it a cleaner look. It looks good.
No pics now. Need to get digital camera!

Re: Anyone do a nice !back seat setup... Total weight savings in my 99 SS was 36 lbs.
That's with the removal of the seat back (heavy), lower seats and the seat belts. I did that at the track.. went from 12.31@111 to a 12.25@112 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
When I bought the formula.. the seats were out at 500 miles <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Anyone do a nice !back seat setup... I cut the brackets that stick up off the car all together as well as all the bracketry for the seat belts when I removed all that a couple weekends ago. I shaved the floorpan with a finishing tool so it is smooth in that area. I might take a really thin piece of aluminum for weight savings and weld over the top of the recessed part that the seat sat in to make it look smooth across. I guess I'll decide closer to the time that I get my carpet done. Just an idea hope it gives you some direction.
