    Survey of Interest in Seat Extenders

    There was some talk about interest level in seat extenders and how that may lead to a fabricator tackling the job for us.

    I guess size would be determined later. I know there was some testing as far as how far up the seat should go and what not. I don't know where the final "Tone Version" landed.

    I've already got em installed so I won't vote. I think 'Welder Guy' would do a run of 5 so as soon as there are 5 yes's, I'll pull mine to have him duplicate.

    Not a clue till I take 'em in.

    Does anyone have a picture of Tone's seat extenders? His website has been taken down.

    That would be greatly appreciated. Believe it or not, we use the back seat on ours alla time since the TLC is on long term loan to daughter.

    Ahhhh - - Do you feel the love!!!!!!!!!

    This is what this site is all about.

    If you peoples can get this up and running, I would buy a set.
    Then try and get them together with a set of window brackets and a Scangauge to ship all in one go.

    Might even think of a few other things to make up a Xmas pressy for myself.

    Put me down for a definite one set.

    Thanks

    I will fill the #2 spot in the poll.

    Tom4bren, I may be sending my diff brackets to you this winter so they can be welded up (of course, if thats alright with you). I still want to check a local 4x4 shop for a quote but I don't think it will beat the price you quoted me a couple months ago.

    Definitely "in" just tell me how much
    I'm constantly needing more: Big TV's, Extra Storage, Larger Belts....space to crawl in back of VX). Even my skinny friends don't want to make the crawl.
    If he can make 'em. I'll wrap it up and gift it to myself for Thanksgiving, then think of something else for Christmas - maybe that combo GPS/back-up camera....?

    No new additions to the family yet. The first one is keeping me plenty busy

    I'd like to be able to put a rear car seat in the Vehicross so we can have two "family friendly" vehicles. Right now we only have a car seat in the CR-V. If my wife is out with her car that leaves me with no option to transport my daughter besides her stroller. In warm weather it wasn't a big deal, but with temps getting into the 40s this past weekend and colder stuff on the way it got me thinking about what I'm going to do this winter. Passenger side seat extenders sound like the way to go.

    Tom, if I am not mistaken, this also makes the seat not able to go as far back as stock correct? I have my driver seat in the most fully extended position all the time for my ridiculously long legs, and since I like symmetry so much I have the passenger seat all the way back as well. This mod does not allow passenger seat to go all the way back to the original farthest setting correct?

    PittVXr - I forgot all about Leah's arrival back in Feb. How's she doing? Sleeping through the night yet?

    LittleBeast - You are absolutely correct sir. The amount the passenger seat is moved forward to allow more access to the rear seat, rear positioning is lost by the same amount. Thus far, nobody has complained about loss in rear travel of the passenger seat in mine.
