Well iv been debating doing rhis for a while now and I finally got the nerve to start cutting. I went from a bench seat to 2 separate pods and so far just sittin in the yard I am glad I did it. I am goin to put a storage box behind the drivet seat and my gas can behind the otherside . I still ned to run some angle iron to the floor to give the esge some stability but I am glad I made the change and cant wait to try it out on the water
