I bought a seat off craigslist


Recommended Posts

Thats pretty spiffy! Beats the hard plastic ones. Nice snag! Dunno how its going to stand up to weather though?

I'll probably get a cover for it, but since it is for a CJ, it should be fairly durable. It is made of vinyl, so nothing to soak up water. I assume I should have to care for it like a boat seat, and they hold up pretty well to the elements.

I have jump seats installed in my 86 Brat. And after goin through the laws i havent found anything that says you cant. Just says you need a seat belt. And as far as the way its installed it says "The state patrol shall adopt and enforce standards as to what constitutes adequate and safe seat belts and for the fastening and installation of them."

So i guess it comes down to whether the cop thinks its safe or not.

 

At least thats the way i interpret it

its not legal to ride in seats in the back of a 86 or 87 BRAT. The last year you can legally install and ride in them is 85, which is part of the grandfathe'd law here. look it up. before you get a ticket.

 

Only in certain states. Colorado has no laws regarding adults in the cargo area of a vehicle.

What about the trunk of an '89 Tempo? :lol:

 

But yes, WI is ok with it as long as there is a safety restraint in place.

 

Looking forward to seeing the seat in there.
