unless you move the b pillar and use 3 door doors ,how are you going to gain access to the rear seats mate .

buy a 3dr shell if you fancy a build ,you will be throwing away good money trying to convert it

Yeah relised about the b pillar and using 3dr doors just wondered if it would need a iva after I was going to build a kitcar but the iva is £499 and the closest test centre is 100 miles away from me so to much hassle if I got to do a 200 mile trip and if it needed Togo back at any point
