I'm looking at getting a contour sometime, but need folding rear backseats. Would some of you that go "junkyard diving" often in this area think theyre hard to find w/ matching interior, so if I get a contour without rear folding seats I can just switch them in(if thats not very difficult?).. Thanks..

Or you can buy one of my Contours with folding rear seats already in it!

Just expect them to fold down flat, they don't! They only go down this far: (Ignore the amps and stuff, just look at the seats. AND if you have a rear strut brace, that also makes it hard to get much into the trunk.)

Thanks for the picture - Would 6-7' poles be able to fit in the car with seats folded down(can go between front seats if need be)?

EDIT: Also, thanks for all the car advertisement, but I'm on a bit of a budget and doubt I'll be able to buy some of the cars most people are selling on here. Just wondering if rear folding seats are possibly considered "rare" in SE Michigan junkyards.

I'm sure if you can find fold down seats those 6-7' poles will fit fine. Just ask Rawburt, he gets in his car with one everyday...

Oh wait, that's 6-7 cm

The subs are 10", 400 watts from Radio Shack. Not the best, but certainly not the worse either.

seats will lay flat if you remove the lower seat pad.
