One warning about the install, the measurements on the instructions must be altered if installing with a subwoofer.

Well to get this started I have a 4dr JK that seats 5 and i love it, however with 3 kids when they want to bring a friend or two well, we have to drive two Jeeps, I was looking around online and found a company named Little Passenger Seats www.littleseats.com/index.html, they make third row seats for all types of vehicles. The seats have seat belts built into the seat, the company matched the interior far better than i had expected. with the seat in you loose the large storage area, (same room as a TJ). the seat comes out in a few min, or just lay the mid row seat down and put the grocerys in the middle. The jeep now seats 7, so if I have friends or faimly now we can take one car, still cooler than a mini-van. what do ya'll think

it takes me about 10 min to take from my jeep and put in my wifes jeep, and is pretty simple to remove, my wife can take it out but take her alittle longer.

I actually have it out most of the time and just throw it in now and then when I want to cruise around with a few extra people. People are just too damn cautious now a days. We used to sit in the back of trucks and drove with no seat belts on all the time.

Just to illustarte, here's a picture of an accident that happened in front of my office yesterday morning. The guy walked away without a scratch because the crush zone worked on his honda van. His van is DESIGNED for 3rd seat passengers and if he would have had any, they would have been killed. Just imagine how bad it would be if it wasn't even designed for it.
but off ranting, those seats do appear to match well and fit the space nicely.

Yeah but it's all relative. Try getting hit in a 2 door mini. The rear head rests almost touch the glass on the rear window. The jeep is up higher and most cars are going under in.
