Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 Got board this morning sat about waiting for more goodies to turn up so I decided to strip out the rear!! I may regret it later as its a daily but we will see! Out with the seats, sub box,amp and every thing! Removed all the seat belt parts for the rear seats too and all the seat mountings Then put all the plastics back in I may do away with them later but we will see, going to make a full floor for it next but will do that over at the garage as I have all the woodwork gear over there for the job. There is going to be some BIG updates coming soon with a lot more custom engine bits and more power too! plus setting up all the trick ECU functions too! so keep watching this space lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 He stuck a sly edit in there Matt!! I came to the conclusion that in the 14 years of owning it I bet there has not been 10 times when the rear seats have been used! and the fact that they were all faded helped make up my mined! get em ripped out John if ya dont use em plus theres more room for camping gear and beer now for JAE!!!!
