Depends on your upholstery. I have the leather, and after my first 6-week roadtrip, where the seats were always down, it left impressions in the leather. So now, when I have to put them down for longer than a day, or with a load on them, first I pad them with a blanket that I always keep in the boot. That has solved the divotage! LOL!

with tinnitus,(and even with a stock MCS exhaust,) I find that the extra noise of the seats down is more than I can tolerate (especially on the highway),so, although I put them down all the time to carry stuff,I always put them right back up when I'm done .For the same reason, I've even come to the sad decision that I'm not sure I can live with the high pitched whistle(not the supercharger whine,the noise given off by the throttle bodies at low openings) given off by the Alta CAI foam filter,so I'll probably be replacing that with a K&N filter to see if I get any relief there too .

With the rear seats out/down, my car needs to be driven with ear plugs! The SS header, cat-less, Magnaflow set-up is deafening inside the car. When I have my kids in the car, I stuff the boot full with moving blankets to deaden the sound....it works great.

I've had my seats down for most of 2 years now :smile: , using the rear rubber mat and the mat that covers the rear seats when they're down. Love it !
Also have the BMP intake and the Milltek header and exhaust - not too loud, but nice sounding! ...... never have the seats up, so haven't noticed any difference!
