I just took mine out and it looks like hell but nobody wants to get back there any more. I know there is a kit for it somewhere out there keep looking, if i come across it I'll come back and post.

Are you looking for one that mounts subs or anything like that?

You can always build your own to save a bit of cash.

My buddy did his with a bit of fiberglass and some material he wrapped it with.

I saw where one guy on here fabbed a box (it wasn't for speakers) that fit snuggly and wrapped it in carpet and it looked pretty good. If you cant find any pics of what you want, get yourself a good carpenter and a sheet of plywood and see what you can come up with.

There are (or used to be) kits available with covers for the holes, can't find it right now though.

I'm thinking about doing this over the winter. I can get some aluminum cheap and make my own. I like how it looks without the seats.

I just had mine out, I honestly thought it was kind of pointless, it makes the inside of the car seem huge, and you can't do much with the empty space. Unless its a race car, I'd leave them in, then take em' out for the track if you're worried about the weight. /opinion.

You could fab them up yourself, that is what most do, however on eBay, they use to have them. I'd check that out as well as the links in the thread. Good luck!

I'd like to remove mine and put a rack-like thing in there to hold computer towers/LCDs. I'm a computer nerd and work on PCs so something like that would be helpful. As long as it didn't look butt-ugly, that's the only thing.

I just pulled mine out a few weeks ago. If you go out to buy the torx bit (47) to pull the seatbelts, don't go looking at Home Depot or ACE. You'll find them in an automotive store like Autozone. Learned that the hard way.
