anybody do one on a car without a full cage/harness bar/seats


is it worth it and which one did you do? thanks guys

I did so I could put in coolshirt system. I think Schrader is the brand, can look later, I'm old and wear a suit and Sebring is hot as hell in August

[kropscamaro16]

haha that is a good reason and nice lil setup there! i dont wear a full track suit only jeans long sleeve shirt helmet and gloves

I'm probably overkill, but keeps my wife calm and you do feel safer.

[kropscamaro16]

haha oh i wouldnt think its overkill or laugh at you if i saw you at the track as long as your not slow with all that gear


you have hans style device also ?

I did a rear seat delete and replaced the seat with cardboard and black felt to make it looked finished. It only cost me $30 worth of supplies, and the board is attached to the plastic trim with double sided adhesive. Saved me about 27 lbs. of weight and really easy to do as the seats are just held in by clips.

that actually looks pretty decent! i seen a video of guy that did the same my gf is pretty artsy so im sure she could help me with it

Thanks! My wife made the seat cover, so I was lucky to have her help out.

Nice work! So, the rear seats only weigh 27lb?!
Or is this a saving over a market solution?
Thanks for the clarification. Cheers!

Thanks! The seats actually weigh close to 30 lbs, so it was about 3 lbs of material to cover the opening and metal for a net weight loss of 27 lbs. This was a lot cheaper than buying the Schrader seat delete as it was nice and functional for holding items, but almost 10 times more costly than making one at home.

Does the 30lbs include the rear seat belts?

Just the top and bottom seat sections. I haven’t removed the rear seat belts yet.
