Shrader Perf Rear Seat Delete Kit went in today!

Went to a mod day with the club up North and they helped me put in the rear seat delete, (and a grill in the "supercharger snout").

Looks real nice and clean. Good job with the install. Curious, what did it cost you? Can't decide if the rear seats will go back in or stay out once the roll bar comes out after the racing season's done.

Looks like you had fun at the Mod Day. Your Shrader rear set delete looks great.

Since you are in both clubs you should organize an event that both clubs could attend some where between WS and CLT. It would be nice to meet the MINIs from the other Carolina Club. If you need some help let be know.

Thanks
George

Wildcat, Flat surface, no race harnesses Only $109 (Regular $119.99)
I opted to pay $20 more for the OEM looking knockouts for the seat belt harness, so I can go Schroth harness if I want. with grommets for Schroth harnesses Only $129! (Regular $144.99) Shipping is free either way.

George, I thought that same thing yesterday! These are a great bunch of guys and we had a lot of fun, plus both clubs have the whole gamut from casual to racers, and mods galore! Maybe a road trip from both directions to Childress Winery or something?

Childress Winery would be a great meeting place. Maybe a Saturday in October. They are open for lunch 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM and tours are 12,2 and 4. They have a large parking lot. I think they have also opened some shops near the entrance to the winery.

Dave at M2C2 any member can organize an event. Check with Luke to find a Saturday that is not already taken. Let me know if I can help. Maybe we can take a run up together to check out. It might also be fun to stop by Grassroots Garage.

Thanks
George

George, I sent notes to Luke here, Mark of Tar Heel Minis, and Dan. I'm thinking 7th or 28th as there are events already on the 14th, 21st.

Let's plan on going up there some time to check it out and see if anybody else wants to tag along? My weekends are pretty booked however, I can sneak away for a few hours...

Where did you order the rear seat delete kit from? I am having mine taken out and sound system in the rear. Still working on the design for the subs. Luke P.S how about November for trip to Childress Winery. We have absolutley nothing for that month planned yet.??

That is correct, I opted for the seat belt knockouts, and remember it's free shipping for M2C2 members...hmmm, maybe I should get a commission? LOL

As for the drive to, Dan said Oct 7th would work for him, not the 28th, or we can go in November. This is just a wild hair George and I are putting together...I also heard Dan's planning a pulley party sometime in Oct/Nov, not sure when yet, and we could synch with that, or not, anyway, it's all good!

Trite but true: Let's motor!

I hate to wait to long for us to get together. Oct 7th would work great for me for the Winery Visit. Maybe do the Pulley Day with Dan in Nov, if that works for Dan.

Here's a pic of my final rear seat delete "upgrade" and new Wet Okoles. As you guys know, I bought Steve's rear seat delete kit, and put the factory covers in. Today, I put a dark fabric, attached with velcro, draped across the back, so I can put cargo back there without exposing it, and I just pull it out altogether when the dogs are riding back there on the rubber mats.

P.S. to Drew, the way you get the clasp down next to the driver's seat by the console is to ratchet the thing all the way up first! Duh!
