Do you drive with your rear seats up or folded down? I found that with down you get more view in the rear view mirror, helps sometimes. I don't typically have anyone in the back but I probably do 50/50. Half of the time up, half of the time down.

 

UP 99% of the time... helps keep the few things in the back from sliding around (I use the net when necessary)... Plus I like the look of the SS seats...

 

Even on vacation I had the rear seat up,but I removed the rear head rest.

 

Mine are down most of the time, since i go surfing 5 days out of the week, and my surfboard is in the car.

 

I used to drive with seat down for better rear view.I now drive with seat up but I remove rear seat head rest I get much better rear view in the mirror and you get alot better view when backing

 

Up in the HHR, down in the ZX3.

 

up with the matching orange and black carseat in the center

 

Did this too and the view is much better!

But I also have the shelf in back up and the HHR cargo-holder on top of that--doesn't obstruct the view and gives me more extra space to carry more stuff (I keep a gym bag with extra clothes/sneakers, emergency stuff, etc. in it).

So, seats up and have my CAL teddy bear strapped in the middle seat too!

I usually have the rear seat down, better storage, and my Greyhound likes it too. I carpeted the seat backs with red carpet that matches the red in the interior of the SS black/red and it looks factory, plus prevents stuff, including one large dog, from sliding at every turn.

 

since i got a panel i would have to say down. and i am thinking about removing all that cool plastic storage stuff too. if anyone has done that , i would love to hear about it and see some pics. i found a pic online , where a guy put wood in his 06 to make it a panel- it looked pretty good. i think all that nice plastic wastes alot of space that i could use.
