The following company wants to make a rear seat delete kit for the FRS/BRZ but they need a car for a few days to make their initial mold...anyone in NC interested?

2 questions: since it's my only car, would i be able to take it home after the work is done for the day, and 2, would there still be a panel between the trunk and the cabin?

ANOTHER QUESTION WILL THIS BE CHEAPER THAN THAT $2000 DELETE KIT ALREADY UP FOR SALE?

My guess is yes since the ones they offer one their site are in the $200-500 range.

I would be but I just don't see the point even if I get a free version. If I got paid for it instead it might be worth the drive though.

Give Shrader Performance a call or shoot them an email. I'm only posting the opportunity thanks to the awareness of a member who knew about their R&D need...

I live in Gastonia, and I pass that place all the time. I'll give him a call.

@Lonewolf , I talked to Steve over there and I'm taking my car in Monday. He said I would be given a free rear seat delete out of it. He said anywhere from 15lb to 50lb weight gain, but wouldn't know until they get done. Said it should take a about 3-4 days. Thanks for the heads up!

15 lb to 50 lb increase from intact rear seat weight or from stripped out back weight? It sure seems like either a wash or worse than stock...

ML · 12-04-2013, 03:50 PM

he said it just depends. The one they did for the fiat 500 removed 50lbs

I think he meant weight loss.

Enjoy! You're a lot closer to them than I am. Do you really feel that you'll notice it? I have always been of the mindset that 200lbs is the threshold for what you'll notice.
