So i know this has been done before and i actually got the idea from 85sn2001 his thread-http://forums.wakeboarder.com/viewtopic.php?t=44721

But i thought i'd share my front seat project. maybe to inspire somebody to get a lil custom. its not completely perfect but it gets the job done.

For starters I originally had 2 bucket seats in my 86' century I/O. but the passenger seat just kind of took up lots of space and was a pain to spin around all the time. after reading some threads i decided to get custom.

making a rear facing bench seat like what comes stock in most all wakeboats was my plan. it turned out pretty much like i had invisioned.

it provides a safe dry place for my sub and amps and some extra space for dry clothes. ill post the pics i have now

i know the carpet doesnt match but im working on replacing it all to match the new gray stuff.

I custom made the seat cushions with my friend who went to school for auto upholstery. the kid can do crazy stuff but for time and money sake we made it simple.
