Default Installed BuiltRight screw rear seat release today

I installed the BuiltRight Ind. drivers side rear seat back release strap today. It took longer to get the stuff out from under the seat than it did to install. It works great! I would recomend this to any screw owner looking for more storage space. I put the box link box and my trailer hitch back there to show space gained. These items don't nearly fill the space available.

This is a cool area for XLT trims. My Lariat (and I assume the upper trims) have the area chocked full of computer modules and the subwoofer.

A small rifle or SG mount would be cool back there.

Yep, wish I'd have looked back there before I ordered mine...

Thank you very much for the feedback!

You make a good point - space back there varies greatly depending on options. My Lariat has nothing but space back there, but I have a 501a without heated rear seats and upgraded audio. We're currently working on a mount for the space back there.

Hope you still find some use for the space, even if it's for a small first aid kit and jumper cables or something!

I'm very interested in a mount back there. I tried to fit a slim go bag and a triage bag, but neither fit. My thought process on that area goes toward a long gun mount and a fire extinguisher backing plate. Love to see what you come up with, the workmanship on that release is top notch.

I checked mine today. The amp and subwoofer take up all of the available space on my Lariat so this will not work for me. I had high hopes and the product looks like it is a quality piece.

(back) Ordered.

It's threads like this that I joined this site for. Thanks OP for posting.

Hard to find innovative aftermarket parts on the market that are worth buying.

I too have an amp and subwoofer mounted behind the seat and subsequently, rarely have a need to get behind the seat. Still buying this though. If for no other reason than to support a vendor who comes up with a worthwhile product for our F-150s.

Pay attention Ford and include something like this going forward.

Built right: hope you got or have applied for a patent on this thing.

Worth buying just to show support for someone who will make future innovations for our trucks.

Thank you for the kinds words, gentlemen. Rest assured, I'm pursuing a patent on this product, as it differs substantially from the small strap that ford offers on some supercab models (it seems).

On a more fun note, I'm excited to bring additional products to market that I feel will similar voids! Thank you for the orders and support.

ordered one today for my 2011 FX4 screw. I was going to rig up something myself like I usually do but after seeing the quality of the built right product and the price it just wasn't worth taking the time and hassle to create something myself.
