The New Ford Performance Rear Seat Delete - First Look

[Jmeo]

Part number M-6346612-GT


The new Ford Performance rear seat delete kit I ordered finally delivered, so I thought I would share with you what comes in the kit.

This new kit comes with a new rear parcel tray. I find it interesting that they went through the bother to include a parcel tray with one less rear seatbelt attachment. I mean, we are taking out the rear seats, and all the restraints, so why do they feel the need to keep one of them? I know the CFTP comes with this same parcel tray, I just don't understand why they don't delete both of them.....

I find the inclusion of "SVT Coupe" on the label interesting.

The delete itself appears to be the same panel as previously sold.

From what I can tell, they no longer include replacement hardware to plug the holes from the hardware removed (I will just re-install the existing hardware). Also, they switched from a plastic push pin style piece at the center bottom position, and now include a riv-nut to be installed which uses a bolt instead.

To all the CFTP owners, does your car have a push pin on the center floor hole, or a bolt?

That one seatbelt may be for child seat?

i will have to check later on my CFTP about the bolt of push pin.

How much did that run you?

The S550 GT500 and Mach1 use the rivnut and bolt, a change from the GT350R which used the plastic pushpin.

Are you suggesting for a child seat that is strapped into the front passenger seat?

$787 pre tax is what I paid.

Even the 2020 CFTP GT500? Curious to know if they switch to this for 2021, or if has been this way, even in 2020?

Would you trust a child seat sitting in the back on the floor pan ? I sure as heck wouldn't. That is some kind of crazy. OTOH, Ford may have to have the hook up to meet federal safety regs.

I read it in the owners supplement. It is the anchor for a child seat in the front seat. I’ll have to pull the manual and look it up.

The 20's I have seen have been this way.

The box is such an unusual size, that shipping is usually crazy. What was the out the door price to include shipping and tax?
