Removing Seats to Sleep in Car

Post by TriGGER »

I'm going on a Scotland road trip during the winter for a photography thing and want to sleep in the car.

So I want to sleep lying down and with that I will have to make some adjustments. I'm going to take the front passenger seat out but rear seats don't fold flat. Has anyone got any ideas on how I could get it too. Is there a way of getting out just the 'back rest' (folding section) at the back and for just the one side?

In the end I plan to slide in a thick piece of foam and plant loads of duvets down. Obviously I will have to use sleeping bags or mummy bags with a window slightly open for venting the moisture out. If anyone has any ideas on how to heat the car safely whilst sleeping that'd be helpful

I'd honestly just buy a decent tent and sleeping bag far less hassle and you don't have to take your car apart
