Default rear seat delete

i was wondering if anyone in houston has built a rear seat delete for their cars. i have been wanting one for a long time, but i cant justify spending the money people want for them when i know that i can build it myself for way cheaper. if i could score some construction pics or meet up with someone that has one to get some measurements and stuff that would be great. thanks guys

I just took mine out and that was enough deletion for me? I mean, what's the point of taking them out for weight and then putting more weight back into play? I actually painted the only part of the floorboard that was showing to match my carpet.

Unless you wanna do it for just looks?

I'm at college right now and don't have my car with me, so i can't get pics for you. Sorry man.

I took mine out so i wouldn't have to give people rides and for a little weight reduction. Some people are really determined to get a ride so they'll sit back there on the hot floor anyway ( my exhaust heats those floorboards up till they're HOT).
