rear seat delete idea
Ok... so i kinda drew this off something i saw posted here a while back, bear with me its a crappy photoshop but... i think ittl convey what im thinking about... the firebird emblem is gonna be done with plexiglass and have some sort of l.e.d. or neon configuration behind it to make it glow at night. Im still not settled i want to do it that way or just embos it into the carpet... tell me what you guys think. The delete would pretty much come off the rear shelf, and slant down at an angle... I know it looks a little ricey in the picture but im thinking i can give it a nice clean finished look actually in the car... keep in mind these arent the subs and amp i plan on going with either, just easy pictures to photoshop... opinons, suggestions, critisism, ill take it lol...

i really have no purpose for the rear seat anymore, makes sence to me just to get rid of it and make use of the space... as far as weight goes im not to concerned either way. Ill be buying speakers cause i dont have any at the moment... hadnt thought about flushmounting the amp but i imagine that would look good... would it have any overheating issues like that though? i guess i should mention i dont know anything about stereos... have a guy whos gonna build the backside of the boxes and do all the wiring for me.

I personally would have taken the floor all the way to the back of the seats to make it look like the corvette trunks. Plus you can put some pretty nice cubby holes behind the seats and hide all kinds of things. But that is what I would have done.
I do like the progress and look forward to seeing what you come up with.

I don't think I could have a car without rear seats (well, i'd take a zr1 but i wouldn't remove them). But im 19.
The subs would have to be bigger than the pic. Also, may I suggest you but a blue film over the bird, than have a cheap neon in the box, but not directly in front of the bird. Remember, thats facing your windshield and will reflect on it at night.

I decided rather than do the lighting im probably just going to emboss it in the carpet... still to early to tell. I know what ya mean, when i first got my car i loved the fact i could haul all my friends around... but as time went on and i saw how hard it was on the car i began to understand why gm didnt bulid these things with a ton of space back there... human beings wernt ment to set in those things lol... I got tired of all my friends asking for rides so rear seat delete and bam... no more 4 people shuved in my t/a and no more messed up shocks, bottoming out exhaust, and all that good stuff lol
