Anyone added the ski pass through to rear seat?

Thumperx · 02-11-2012, 01:21 PM

Just like the title states. I don't have the ski pass through, but interested to know if anyone else has attempted to perform this retrofit. How difficult was it?

Yes, I've searched and seen other members cut the rear armrest plastic barrier. But I'm interested to know if anyone has cut and trim the backside rear seat's fabric and panel, then added the ski pass through bezel and trim section.

Just wondering....

It appears that if you don't have the pass thru - you would need to get all the appropriate trim parts, and cut a hole thru the backside carpet AND the metal seat back.

Metal seat backs are different part numbers depending on whether pass thru or not. I assume that means the one for pass thru has the hole in the metal already present - while the other does not...

Anyone else has done this retrofit or similar to it?

When you cut the hole, was it plastic or metal material?

It was plastic I used a oscillator to cut it out. When you pull the arm rest down there is a cover piece, remove that and cut away. Keep the removed panel for when you want to cover the hole.
