I have always kept the storage cubbies in the car. It is not that I needed the storage or the shelf to carry groceries home from the store, it's just that it was there.

Then I put in Flash's " chassis brace " and the cubby was not too easy to re install, so I left it out for the trial fit. The trial fit is still in there and I find myself wondering if I should put the cubby back in.

With the cubby out I have saved weight and there is more room to carry larger items behind the seats.

I located an article about pulling out the cubby and using the rear seats for cartage and the occasional small child who wants to come along with me and my 9 year old. I purchased a 944 rear seat belt assembly on Ebay for $50.00 to go through with the mod.

The article says to hammer the shelf brace down and tuck it under the carpet. Has anyone done this mod? Can the clip be removed or just smashed down?

you may or may not have a mounting hole and threaded insert for the rear inner seat belt



there will be no shoulder harness for the rear - this may not meet your state's requirements



and yes, reinstalling the storage boxes is a bit of a pain if you've never done it, and awkward even if you have
