lol. its brand new. Ive had it since febuary, Im not "Ripping" them out, im taking them off the brackets and unbolting them. I can get rid of the seat to where if i wanted to get it put back in i could. Also the clearance is from almost door to door. Still hard to do sh*t in the back. Ive only used the back seat to haul some people around here and there and to do stuff with my girl. I can live without a backseat. >.<
And also, i understand the demolition thing, only thing is..Without taking out the seat, i can only fit two 10" Kicker CVT's facing down under the seat, and i guess the box they gave me at the shop wasnt the best. *its small because the room, and the side is splitting at the seem* =\
