It will be noisy as hell.

More cabin noise but that's about it.

And unsafe... Don't forget how unsafe it is.

I agree that's the same situation I am in. However if he wants to do it this doesn't scream I trashed my car trying to look like something I am not

That's the delete kit I have. It was my first mod. I like it, looks real nice. The only problem is you can't put any weight on it, that's why I only clean my back window once a year.

Makes me wonder if it'd be better to just buy some acrylic/plywood, mlv, fabric, and do this yourself. At least then you could make it support weight and maintain some sort of noise control...

Never knew that kit couldnt support any weight at all, especially for the price of the kit.

Are airbag sensors smart enough to not go off in that case? And is it the yellow plug near the speakers?

I can't believe there are still people that think this is how airbags work

Zeal86 has a pretty badass looking rear seat delete project going on in his build thread... If you have the ability to make something yourself you might check that out HERE.

It cuts out noise quite well. The bottoms of the flat parts have sound mat glued on and it comes with a couple more sheets of sound material to lay down. Believe me, it is a lot louder with it out. I used hard fasteners to put the bottom 3 pieces together. I have it so 2 wing nuts removes the entire bottom piece when I want in a couple seconds. It it very light weight. I would imagine something made with wood would be quite heavy.

I like it. If you didn't know, you would think the car came that way.

lol yea. But to be fair, it could still be risky if someone who decided to sit back there shorted a connection to the airbag. I think?

bcj · 03-07-2017, 06:45 PM

Oh, helz noe.

That's worse than running with scissors!

The connections are well secured inside clips and not readily accessible. Besides if there is no seat or seat belts back there then there should not be any passengers anyway. If there are then them somehow managing to set off the airbags would be the least of your worries anyway.
