RX7 back seats with battery relocation?
 

so my question for you all is is there any room under the seats to relocate my battery to? ;) Id rather ask before I start tearing the interior of my car apart lol

with the way the seats sit so low using a full size battery i would have to say no. using a small compact battery its possible.

I have mine in the rear storage unit, its a smaller battery though as a regular one wouldnt fit.

get rid of the small animal beds

:D I like them, lol I tend to bring friends home from the bar its amusing to play how many people can you cram into the Rx7 LOL

Save yourself the headache, and move it to the trunk. That's where I put mine, never had any issues... It's about two feet further more or less, than in the bins..

No, there is no room under the rear seats. The seat foam sits on the floor. Move it to the trunk. :icon_tup:

back seats are prob my most hated mod in Fd's... I think they're absolutely pointless.

Lower insurance rates! ;)

If it's because of an FMIC, get a small racing battery and carry a portable charger in your trunk lol.

They look far classier than the hard plastic bins IMO. They also leave a crap ton more room for storage than the bins (which is ironic)

I agree. They do look better...plus you can have a rear tower bar without reducing any storage space.

I love the look of the back seats but they aren't realistic unless you're a dwarf or you lack both legs.

You could carry one person over short distances in a pinch. I used to carry up to three people in my FC in the hatch :D But it's super embarrassing to drive around like that.

lol idk I kinda like them, everyones like wow you have back seats! hahaha and well it came with the car, the guy paid like 400$ for them

Lol I can totally relate you look like a goon if you have someone in the back my chest is almost touching the steering wheel lol

I have the back seats and love em... more function for storage IMO. But I digress, this isn't a thread about bins vs seats.

I got rid of my spare and put a mini battery (Odyssey) in it's place with a can of fix-a-flat and a small portable pump. I figure if it's a situation where fix-a-flat doesn't fix it, it's probably gonna have to be towed anyhow.

My car came with back seats (JDM) they're pointless. My battery is in my trunk (also pointless)

how small would you have to be to fit? i have a 3 yr old and a wife, so i never get a chance to drive the rx7 since its a 2 seater

iv had a 170lb guy in the back lol on the passenger side, but then we had a women in the front seat, but iv fit 2 guys 2 girls in the Rx7 just fine just have to have the front seats up enough to get their feet on the floor

heck iv been drunk in the back seat lol fun stuff drifting around corners lol
