M4TT Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 i meant with the ability to stil use all 5 seats IF NEED BE jesus<{POST_SNAPBACK}> well it fcuking hard getting in the back of a 3dr with any extra 12 inchs on the front doors, so tring to get in the back of a 5dr with it normal short from doors is near impossible WHAT THE fcuking POINT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-Finesse Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Matt, that is also the easy route! Go for it matey! Although, if you smooth the whole rear door and panel into one, it may look odd with there being two windows? That's a mod I'd get a photoshop of first!

DAVE W Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Its a pain in the arse getting in and out of a 3dr 5dr will be madness and 5 dr seats dont tilt forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST170 Dan Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 im not gona filler it smooth or anythin, as i said i prefer the look of a 5 door. only with escorts mind, i think the doors look outta proportion on a 3door, they look better on a 5door i reckon. anyway, ive seen a picture of it done and it does look lush! smooth. the seats recline forward on a latch so ppl can still get in. they will also move forward on the runner. not sure mot wise but i can find out. im likin the idea to be honest!.........

sortedford Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 mots would have been ok i thought as you could just take the rear seats out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST170 Dan Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 HOW MANY MORE TIMES, PREFER 5DOOR LOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wot il do is il get the seats in and try it out, c how easy it is to get in/out (as i seaid the seats recline fully forward on a latch) and if its not any hassle i think i'l do it. i wont be doin it until my mk6 doorcards are in and they hav the 6x9 fitted in it (new stereo system is xmas plan so its gonna be a while. good to get it in the pipeline tho).
