This is true. I was speaking specifically about the removal of seats though.Originally posted by letsgoplaces View Post2011 150series GXLComment

No we can remove seats without an issue. I learnt that at the SAPOL stand at the show the other week
Who knew the show was a learning experience as well

I remember I had my 'race' car defected once because the rear seats had been removed along with seat belts etc. The cage also meant no one could sit there... there were some other issues also but they were especially grumpy about the seats.2011 150series GXLComment

I'll double check, but that's how i understood what was said to me.
I'll tell you something else he told me about driving lights. This interested me as i have a pair of spots and want to put on a pair of spreads as well. We are allowed to have four driving lights. GREAT... spreads here i come
BUT the high beam of your headlight is technically (stupidly) a driving light. So i already have four driving lights, which will probably become six!

I've been trying to find information on the removal of seats on the TransportSA website but as it's so poorly designed, finding information is quite a task.2011 150series GXLComment

Surely you have to come across a veeeeeery bored cop or be doing something stupid to get 'done' for something that trivialOur 6 year old and 3 year old try their hardest to make sure there is no time or money for the other babyComment

The frustrating part is, I can remove the seats if I want them gone forever and pay an engineer $60 for a mod plate to change the seating cap to 5 people easy as you like but if I want to go back to having 7 seats it is another $60.
My understanding is the insurance still have to prove that the removal of the seats was a contributor to the accident, can't see many justifications bar maybe the 50kg+ removed from the back may make the brake bias out of whack if the rear is completely empty? With things like wheels and tyres it is easy for them - yeah that 20mm larger diameter tyre (not legal in QLD) caused the vehicle to brake less effectively so that is the reason you ran up the bum of the car in front.Comment

Masso, could you please post some photos of behind the rear seats? I'm wondering how much room there is there to store bits and pieces or mount radio equipment etc.2011 150series GXLComment

Hey Wooley... will get some shots... but basically as the rear seats move forward/back... you can make as much room as you dare..with seats back full and backrests tilted rearwards a bit... you are about 20mm from the drawers...but i am fitting a cargo barrier.. so will probably have to move seats forward a bit anyways.. however.. will take some shots and see how they come out.Originally posted by wooley View Post

Ahh ok, I'm just thinking that because the rear of the drawers would be vertical? and the seats are on a slight angle that maybe there is a bit of space there.Originally posted by masso View Post
a bit like this perhaps
