    Does any one have pics of someone who has modified the supports behind the backseat to mount an audio system? I want to eventually make my car "backseat optional" as I am calling it but dont want to ruin the structural integrity of the car

    Those supports are pretty flimsy. When I got my car the factory spot welds were busted and the supports were just flopping around. You could probably just fab up your own supports that don't interfere with whatever you want to install and weld those in.
