very nice job.
rather than a fridge, why not just use a layer or Styrofoam to insulate. itll keep cold stuff cold and hot stuff hot.
or even better, run a line from your vent to go into the compartment. then you can run your A/C to cool stuff or heater to warm stuff.

ya i have to brainstorm a little... using the AC doesn't sound that practical, but I like where you're going. FYI, you'd be surprised how it already keeps ur beverages coo, even when it's roasting hot outside it's room temperature in the box. And if you throw in 1 icepack, it's good to go bro.

pretty cool mod.
as far as the rear seats though, they are actually very comfortable for a coupe (coming from a guy over 6 feet tall). the only "coupe" ive ridden in that is more comfortable is the rx8, which is more comfortable than a grand am sedan. ours is much better than mustangs, new and old, eclipses, 240s, probes, and more.

^ tell your lazy friend to scoot his seat up then lol. if its not all the way back its descent. its still got more leg room than the others i mentioned. its not exactly ideal for a road trip but coupes werent designed for that anyways.

So there's enough room in there for extra padding and a space deep enough for cans?? If I switch up my interior, I might do this.
RX8? Sure the seats are nice, but there's no leg/arm room. For that to work for me, the person sitting in front would have to be 4'9" and have the seat all the way forward. I'm 5'9". Was looking at RX-8's but even my 10 year old little cousin was having problems getting into and sitting in the back seat. But hey, if it works for you...

Very cool idea for extra storage space! We all know that space is at a premium in our cars as it is. Every little bit helps.
Just remember guys... you can't hide anything from the K-9.
