hellamikey Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 My fiance's mom has a Mercedes wagon with a pull-out rear facing seat in the cargo area. its weird to ride backwards in a car, but actually kinda fun lol I say do it:thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Twiggz Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I guess you have no seat belt laws where you live? Or do you plan to add some? I remember the old LTD wagon that my grandfather had, also had a rear facing back seat. But thinking back, he might have just added like you did haha. Quote Link to comment
erikcarter Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 yeah we have seatbelt laws here, I just went and picked it up and was excited to see if it would work for my son. I still have to carpet and bolt it down solid, I will need to get some seatbelts if anyone has some. Quote Link to comment

uieluck Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 No offense,, this may be the worst possible idea ever on Ratsun. Creative yes, but that's it. What's next, Subaru Brat jump seats mounted on 2X4's in the back of a 520? Fail. Quote Link to comment

Rob W. Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I think it could work. I have 4 kids and feel your pain you gotta make room nice way to make the room Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Haha, was thinking of doing a quick mount/release third seat myself sometime... just not that seat :blink: Quote Link to comment
erikcarter Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yeah the seat is a little big, but I got it for 75 bucks of craigslist and just went for it. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Are the kids big enough to need a head rest? Should have that for sudden stops.. Quote Link to comment
RATDAT3 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 You should try a Jeep Wrangler back seat. It folds and is better suited for the back area--it will fit more snugly against your back seat and give more leg room. If you need any Upholstery work, let me know. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 my grandma had a taurus wagon with rear facing seats when I was little, it was fun to ride in :lol: Quote Link to comment
CharlieBucket Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 We had wagons in my family when i was very young with the rear facing seats. My older sisters never let me sit back there. I always wondered what it would be like?! Quote Link to comment
