i'm not sure if it is illegal from where you are, but down here in sunny florida, we have no problems.

if you are uncertain, you can always searched the net or go down to your local library. they should have books on laws related to your state.

i have most of that removed except the pass seat i do have and ive never had an issue. i dont see why you would be required to have the back seat itself in.. but like whats been said... check your state laws

What will happen?

The cop will think you're a ricer, as will the rest of the world.

Removing the interior on a DD is useless as crap - but no, there's nothing illegal about it.

Represent! lol. (Florida)

No seriously, I would ask a cop myself next time you get pulled over (if you do) Not for that matter, but in any particular case scenario.

if you want to shed some weight pull the backseat out... and leave the plastic side panels because they dont weigh very much and plus they look nice.. carpet? leave it in bc it looks bad when its out imo.

LOL

Let me tell you I love California I really do everything about it apart from one thing

IF your a <FONT SIZE="12">car guy!</FONT> your basically screwed!

This state is obsessed with tree hugging import-hating bureaucrats!

Other then that California is a great place to live in my opinion!

which brings me back to why i posted up that link because i guess cali tree hugging is catching on with other states
