OEM rear seat delete question.

[jabberwoki]

So i bought a OEM rear seat delete kit that supposedly came out of a gt350R.
I had it sent to a friends house where i`ll pick it up tomorrow.
My mate sent me a pic of the box and it looks about 1/2 the length of the box that Ford sends them in.
My question is , aren't they stiff and formed? Will folding them ruin the backing and inhibit its ability to hold its shape?

It is rigid , I would be willing to bet it’s damaged.

2nd that. I took out my rear seat delete in my R... and I can tell you with 100% certainty that while it flexes some....if they kept it folded in half for a prolonged period of time it us potentially damaged.....let us know if it is ok.....

Fingers crossed for you no damage

I have a roll cage in my cars. The only way to get it in is to fold it. So yes, you can fold it. I wouldn't ship it that way though.

Yeah got it today not sure what to think but it's not really that rigid.
I`m ok with it.

Now i just to figure out the dimensions of those 2 foam blocks and find 2 seat belt plugs as i don't want to cut up my originals.

Good to hear it’s good. Wouldn’t want to do that to mine

Doesn't a "rear seat delete" take away the luxury of folding down the (missing) rear seats? You know what I mean? Are you still able to fit something into the trunk that would have required to fold a seat down? Not that I ever used it and probably never will. Just wondering...

Yeah it does , for me not an issue i don't plan on ever hauling anything that big.
Reality is it's a bit of a wank ,the weight you save is nothing you'd ever feel it's just a possers option
Que the head smack...lol

You would be surprised how many Crown moldings from lows fit in that mustang with the rear seat down.

Here are the part numbers for the plugs used with the RSD....

Well i think i may have duped. This looks like a aftermarket piece . The seller claimed it was out of his gt350r but you can fold this thing up 4 ways .
It just doesn't feel right.
I`ve started a return proceeding so i`ll see how it goes.



Well it's on it`s way back so that's a start.

Not to hijack, but what holds the factory seat delete in place? Push pins or bolts. Mine are missing.
