Great find. Had a read and i think there could be 2 options. Keep the hole and try and trim the edges of the square hole in the boot as best as you can with some plastic trim, sort of an "OEM" ski pass retrofit, as i don't think we can use the OEM trim. Or recarpet the whole back seat. I think for this we'd need the OEM carpet and some glue.
Im hoping to get my IB done in a week or 2, delivery has been delayed a little  |
I think if you removed the seat ripped the carpet off the back ( thats if it came off easily without ruining it )
You could cut the ski pass through with a dremel or something then modify the OEM back panel from a fold down seat car to click in that would
be golden you would just have to trim off the flat piece that wraps around the side of the stock seat since its one piece on our cars and round the edges.
Use new carpet and store your old OEM carpet to re-use down the road.
Inside the car just make hollow out the stock plate leaving a 2 inch ring all the way around and cover in grill clothe like this below.
It would only be visible if you opened the arm rest ( just brainstorming out-loud ), I couldn't believe the difference
in sound with the one side of the seat down in my friends 135 vs up at certain diff frequencies.
