Default Seat box

Well. Here it is.
I got a free seat. Removed all the foam. Added mdf and a few other pieces of wood. Then covered it in camo burlap stuff. I kept my old seat in case I want to put it back in. It's two bolts and it's out. I still need to mount my flashlight and shovel to it. Probably mount the highlift to the back. There are two d rings on each side of the bottom seat part to run bungies across.

nope. It's a sealed box that you cannot use - it's just there to take up space

Its not really a box. The bottom part is sort of. But there isn't a lid if that's what you're asking.

The walls are fairly short, which allows the box to fold forward. Like the original seat. Also I have spare parts underneath the seat.

4wp had a box of mounts, it was one set of small ones that are holding the axe, two sets of larger ones for a hi lift/flash light/shovel then a set of the big *** ones for a fire extinguisher/co2 tank. It was $20 or something for all of them.

That's why it's removable in the event that I want to put the real seat back in haha.
