    Hey, New @ CB7...

    Hey, I'm new here at cb and I was thinking...
    I always wanted to remove the rear seats for a little less weight, but the gaping whole looked kinda wack. So, I was wondering if anybody heard of or seen anything like a fiberglass or cf cover for the hole and/or the bottom piece of the seat. Kinda like a seat eliminator I've never done any fiberglass work , so there's a %100 chance I would mess something up.
    So, tell me what you think about this.

    Feel free to post pics of what you have done to the back of the interior, I'd be happy to see them

              yeah i would say cover it with carpet if u wanna lose weight.if u wanna go for looks costom fiberglass but pointless for weight after adding a couple of layers of fiber and bondo that shit gets heavy fast.besides those rear seats dont weigh that much try takin weight off the front of car more unles u gotta sub setup in ya trunk u know to feep better balance on the car from front 2 rear just a thought.

                i actually had this same idea but i completed it, being in school for custom fab. kinda helps. made a huge sub box outta the back seats. 6 15" alpine type R subs. pushing 3000W each peak 1500W RMS.

                    Piece of wood nailed in? lol....I love bootleg looking.
                    I have seen using sub box to fill the hole before, but it gets loud.

                          Sounds like this is the way to go... It's all good, I'll prob keep my orig interior unless I see a set in leather.
                          Thanks Guys

                            If I remember right, I saw a thing on TV about early mustang muscle cars where a deleted rear seat was a dealer option.

                            It was replaced with a thin piece of plywood, covered with carpet, and had some light weight luggage rack bars type bars on it for stiffening. Supposedly it weighed less than the stock rear seat and framing. Only for hatchbacks though if I'm still remembering it right.

                            Still it might be something to look into for inspirational material at least if ya wanna do a factory/dealer "deleted rear seat" look.

                              Not worth the effort. I would just keep the seats in. Thats just me.
