struggle

people say its a struggle even so with tilting subframes, as cos the seats are solid, they only lift a few inches before hitting the roof.........

Fit one Bucket, and a pair of LARGE nitros bottles (have empty one's if u can't afford the real shit) inplace of the passenger seat. Then you can still get two people in the back too.

But you'll need to do something with the back seat to make it look right too.

I have Cobra seats in the golf that tilt and they are fine. Just like normal seats to get in and out of the back. On the other hand my birds jeep has tilting sub frames and you can bearly get in the back.

I've got Corbeau seats on sliding subframes. The dont slide forward enough to get people into the back. I have no rear seats anyway, so it's not an issue for me.

If the top is fully down (tied down) or if the back is full - You can get 3 in the front of a Landy, but I have to get the middle passenger to put it into 4th, I don't feel comfortable :| , unless it's a lady :wink:

Would i be right in saying that a car wont pass an MOT if you have back seats that are difficult to access? Incase you have a crash aand folk get stuck in the back. I don't have that problem coz nobodys stupid enough to get in the back of my car. :P
