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.



What a tool!!! Why would anyone post something as dumb as this?? If that were the case, you could say "This is why driving is a bad idea". There always has to be one...

If you worry about stuff like this, your life is almost over any way.

This guy found and purchased a very cool, great looking solution to a problem that will bring huge smiles to anyone that sits back there. I can almost guarantee that the smiles it will bring will be TOTALLY worth it and nothing will probably ever happen. Think before you post...

I wonder if replacing the rear cage with something similar to the 2dr JK cage would work... (square, not triangular).

Default They look great

Thanks for this information, They look great.

I ordered information on the Little Seats from them was pretty sold on the idea, but I have a small problem, no JK!

I have 4 kids so my decision is between a JK or a Commander. With this 3rd seat the JK will work!
