www.jimmys-rx7.co.uk. He gets rear seats from time time and puts them up on Ebay. Just email him and let him know you are interested. He will let you know the next time he gets some rear seats. His name is Andrew ajc@jimmys-rx7.co.uk. Nice guy! I got mine from him, but I think a few other forum members have purchased seats from him in the past. Average selling prices have been between $350 and $500.

...and remember to get not just the seats, but all the trim pieces that are needed for a complete installation. And if you live in a state that has inspections, you may also need rear seat belts to pass.

It's barely possible to fit 2 people in a FD yet there's rear seats? :eek:

GsrSol 02-08-02 06:42 PM

Thay all go for around that much. The passenger seat has alot of room and I bet I could fit 3 adults in it. I wouldn't dare put someone behind me and I'm only 5'10" , no leg room what so ever.

sunnyxwala 02-08-02 06:50 PM

i just want it for show

GsrSol 02-08-02 07:34 PM

I want it because I never use my bins but if I had seats I could just throw my cd case or whatever back there and it's easily acessable. It's good for show too.

RotaryKnight 02-08-02 07:38 PM

I was piecing to gether a set of rear seat for my car. Took me awhile to find the lower and back cusions that were mint....but i decided to not put the seats in. I use the bins too much. Anyone interested....it's not a complete set you still need the sides and belts but I'll let mine go pretty cheap since im not using them.

RXTouring 02-08-02 09:46 PM

You should make up a cargo net like the Deloreans had, if you just want a place to throw your stuff .. nothing worse than trying to find things under those 3rd gen. seats !

JoeD 02-08-02 10:05 PM

do any of you think this takes away from the "true" sports car-ness of the FD, now that its a 2+2 seater?? :p:

ive also heard that this mod gives a nice reduction in weight from removing the bins and everything as well. so it does have somewhat of a "performance" aspect to it. ;)

sunnyxwala 02-08-02 10:25 PM

i dont care, i like the seats any how

Irrigated_Onion 02-08-02 10:49 PM

insurance
 
does anyone know if you do it correctly you can pass it off as a 2+2 to the insurance company. two seaters cost more but 4 seaters dont. would it work?

You could get lost in the bottom of those seats.

Suprfast: I believe it has to orginally be part of the car and included within the VIN.

BACK seats+FD= really gay and pointless? am i wrong?

OC94Rx7 02-09-02 04:30 AM

Gay and pointless? NO! not when my wife has the stationwagon and I have to pick up my 2 boys at school. You should see the other kids wishing they could go for a spin!

Silex 02-09-02 04:33 AM

Wow that is so friggen sweet! I just wanna hug hug them and take a big dump in them :D...

Silex 02-09-02 04:42 AM

...And leave it there...

RyanREX 02-09-02 11:34 AM

My problem isn't seating, it's cargo room. Many a time I find myself comming out of the market and realize I have th FD instead of the SUV. I need those bins to store things.

GsrSol 02-09-02 12:46 PM

I do believe it would take a little something away from being just a 2 seater and a true sports car but that doesn't bother me.

Unless you are gay and never get married or have children, you would not understand. Whether it has 2 or 4 seats does not change the real part of the sports car. There is nothing like taking the family out for a spin.

Great post Tim!
If anyone is interested in rear seats?. Send me a PM. I have a friend here who is talking about selling his. I told him about this thread, hope to here back from him.
