lol... has anyone done it?... it makes it a little impractical if your going to give someone a lift ocasionally... or when one of your tyres pop while driving...
definatly useful if your doing track/drag all the time...

My DC2 was stripped except the two front seats for a few months. Even the door skins on the front were missing. :D

is it illegal to run a fully-stripped interior on the street ? cause I love doing it but not sure how the cops would react - is hard to justify in their eyes surely, yet nothing has been made un-roadworthy ??

yeh someone said this to me the other day, but i told em i couldnt see why it would be illegal/unroadworthy to have the interior striped...

i think so long as the front seats and the rear belts are there its fine... i always pull my seat belt out from under the coushin when i get pulled up.

The way i see it - its very noticeable when you have a passenger in your car.

SO - 60 odd kilos is very noticeable.

IF you could get rid of half of that, or a quarter, its still gonna be a noticeable gain.

Im thinking of ditching my sub/amp/spare/jack ......that would be a fair amount of weight, but it would all be from the rear....so it would change things a little....

I know its illegal to have exposed wires in a car, espically under the dash. Im pretty sure there are ARD's concering a few things that have been removed from the cars in the above thread, so take ur time and get things OK'd with an engineer.

mm , i stripped my interior out for another reason, to remove mouldings etc.. had everything out, from the front seat back..
i thought about leaving it that way.....but end of the day my cars not a race car hehehe.. so some luxuries are nice :)

mite even consider gettin a 10" sub now!

i mentioned this b4.. so sorry if any1 is reading this again...

as long as the seats(front and back) and belts are still there then carpet n shit is OK.
ur supposed to get it engineered if u take the rear seats out cos then its a "two seater"..

and having no spare tyre is an instant defect too..

I don't think not having a spare makes your car defective.

Having a flat spare though, will lead to trouble from cop's if they want to get you on something stupid.
