Rear seat conversion

Ok i have had this idea for a while so i just thought i would throw it out there. I know that none of us can really fit anyone in our rear seats but not all of us just want to completely remove them, so i was thinking what if you could just remove one of the rear seats and turn the other one sideways in the back and move that arm rest thing to which ever side the seat is not on and carpet up or what ever the area where the last seat was. Just a thought, maybe its been done if so id love to see pics if not tell me what you guys think.

Thanks!!!

thats actually a really good idea. I would love to see that done. No one can even get in my backseats even if they could fit because my seats dont fold foward more than a 1/2 inch... but I am sure that a sideways seat back there would be alot more comfortable for the one guy in the back.

I would like to completely remove the back seat area and just put down flat CF panels.

That's how people sit in my back seat. I had my driver's rear sit out, as well as the "arm rest" and they sit sideways with their legs up. They said it was actually comfortable.

Ya i have people sit like that too which is how i got the idea. Im talking about taking the back drivers side seat out and carpeting or whatever that whole area, then if you have the big arm rest thing move it over to right under the back window on the drivers side. Then make the back passenger side seat turn 90 degrees so it is sitting right under the passenger back window. That way who ever sits there has plenty of room and you still have your consle to store stuf in.

Take some pics of this stuff. I want to do something w/ my rear seats, but I'm not sure what. I'm so tempted to just remove them altogether, but they do come in handy, SOMETIMES. I'm 6' 4", so they're mainly for looks, haha.

I would do something like you have suggested but I have the big console between the seats and I like it. It helps make up for the trap door glove box.

sex in preludes is a bad idea...


Sex in cars is bad karma to begin with... Its a Filipino thing, but every time I've ever broken off a chic in a car, bad things has happened to me (like accidents and flat tires)

Sex in a prelude is bad cuz of this prelude curse, u'll get even less ass.

And there's no room and u dont want to mess up the sweet side supports of the sparco made seats by getting rough rugged and raw in em.

i agree with everyone one of jape's "philosphies", however about only one seat turns sideways, it may be a good idea now but i dont think it will ever turn out right if your do it yourself. Maybe if u take it to a professional, but then it wil cost alot of money, and is it really worth it agert all that
