i've been trying to find out about getting rid of my rear seat, i'm a single guy and i think i've used all of never. so is there any kit that removes it so i can possibly use that area as a luggage area and my trunk for the nitrous bottle, sub, and amps.

i've seen it for the new minis but not the 1st gen, i have a first gen mcs.

anyone else agree, the back seat is so small, and i have my seat so far back on my side that it's useless accept for the passenger side, i'd rather just have a parcel shelf of sorts!

ok, i found that, but i'd like something a little nicer looking, maybe i'm asking too much haha.

 

I will hunt for the thread that I used. I made my own and love it. there are a few pics in my gallery...I'll post the link when I find it.

 

Here is something to drool over...

drooling I am, if only i where even remotely capable of doing something on my own haha. and if i had the time on top fo that! i'm thinking of maybe getting the rear seat delete i posted and getting it fiberglassed now, i wanted to get ap anel for my trunk fiberglassed as well so it's nice and smooth and painted the exterior color!

 

I have never liked the plastic ones...but that's me.
The wood one is really easy and does not take much time. I went a few more steps and added extra bracing and did the carpet like an Upholsterer would. I rolled the edges to made sure it looked well finished ect...

 

Just get the one you posted and either get it glassed, or cover it with carpet yourself. Unless you do car shows a lot, I'd suggest the carpet for wear and tear reasons. Most people use wood inn their custom deletes. This is by far the cheapest method, but I personally don't like wood stuff in my car.

 

I have tested my to beyond 300lbs

 

Order a RSD from COR BLMY; i'm VERY happy with mine, and it matches my stock black carpet very well. Tested with weight of 4 new tires in the rear hatch.

EDIT: I'd take pics if my camera was home with me. It's at the parent's house.

 

+1 to COR BLMY, I have worked with him in the past and he is a great guy Him and his son CRRIKEY have a business now and I really like their products. If you want to see their wing and splitter check out my gallery.

 

Why does it have to be flat? With the seat depressions left in place, things cradle nicely in the hollows, and there are more fixtures to attach tie-downs to when extra security is needed. Floor coverings help suppress road noise. https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=59186

 

^ I do like that k-huevo I just like the "hidden" area and the smoothness for an entire cargo area.

 

you could always go with the GP rear. Its expensive but pretty:

 

Nice

 

this is EXACTLY what i had in mind, how much and where can i get it?

and money isn't that much of an issue, i'm getting paid a small fortune but at sea so i can't spend a penny :D

 

That's nice. I was under the impression you have to have a GP vin # before you can order any GP Parts. I've tried to do this with Classic, and when they asked me if I had a GP, I couldn't lie...

 

Soliloquiet how much did the rear seat delete set up end up running you anyways?

 

There are all kinds of ways to fill the gap once you remive the seats .I used the plastic " rear seat delete kit " that was sold on this site a few years ago as a base for a Carbon Fiber version.
