1jeffcat Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I have a rather odd question. One of our cars has an annoying as hell 1oz rear seat bracket, that is spot welded in place. Can I use a spot weld drill and remove it so we can store stuff in the car while towing it, without it snagging on stuff and/or stuff not laying flat? Can I legally remove this or is it going to be noncompliant with the rule below? 1a) Frame rails, sub-frames/suspension cross-members, and unibodies may have maximum diameter 0.75” (3/4 inch) holes drilled into them for purposes other than lightening, such as for the attachment of ancillary parts. Cutting and channeling is not permitted. Example of the part I am speaking of attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
