Installed the rear seat delete yesterday
I found this product off the web. It took a bit to get it to me, but the fit and finish was well done. Spend a few more dollars for the vinyl back piece. They can match your carpet and interior.............most only offer black carpet. Note how good it fits overall, I was impressed, no half *** fit here.
Ok, the cost was 315.00 shipping included. Kind of pricey but I really like it and kinda looks stock. The only real problem was the instructions were not all that clear..........but I got it figured out.
herer is the link http://mustang-rear-seat-delete.com/catalog29.htm
Here is a few pics
Gettin started, this is how it looks all out of the box.

no it does not fold down. I have never used that feature in any car I have own.
Why I did it, it looks cool. It also keeps the theme of the early shelbys. All 65's and early 66's did not have a back seat. I also do not have small kids any more.
Oh, if you think you are saving weight, forget it. I bet the whole rear seat does not weigh 25 lbs. it is all plastic and leather, no metal any where in the seat.

correct on the moss thing. It would not have looked right to be black with my interior.
They were the only ones with the color match interior.
Yea, it was just over 300, but I am rapidly running out of "cheap" noticable mods.
Plus it makes my car stand out at a show.

Very clean.,

It was pretty sturdy with me sitting on the front edge.
