Is it easy to fit a regular golf cart seat for GEM? I assume you would need to connect it to the frame behind the seat and under the bumper ---

It depends on your personal Fab skills, what you have in your toolbox, and your definition of “easy”. Most of the “kits” offered are for other carts, but they give you the basics to do what is needed. Depending on what kit you buy, plan on adding extra material when adapting it to your gem car. Don’t use the Factory GEM Backpak mounting system that attaches the other accessories to the back of the car. It is not designed to support the weight of two people. ---

Generally, you will find attachment points both under and behind the seat. The amount of fabrication needed is generally based on how close the golf seat you chose generally gets to the gem mounts, and, of course, how talented you generally are. Generally speaking of course. ---

I listed a frame here a while back, might be what you need. > [@2000-2004 GEM Frame Extension for a Cargo Bed or Seat](https://community.electricforum.com/t/2000-2004-gem-frame-extension-for-a-cargo-bed-or-seat/22632): > > My 2002 e825 2 seat came with an add on frame extension to add a rear cargo bed or seat. Nothing I want to get into, so it’s for sale, make an offer. It slips under the seat back and bolts thru frame. Notch sets on the GEM’s transverse member. Painted white, it’s a bit dirty in pictures but no rust. Made of steel. It is 38.5” long 17” wide 6.5” deep Will disassemble for shipping, be aware it is quite heavy. Local pick up in Southern California preferred. , Message me if interested. ---

Nice job Larry. Thanks for posting your results. Did you also run some steel out to support that lower step? It is also difficult to see from this pic, but it looks like you did NOT use the upper hook point for this install. Since it is only rated for maybe 150 lbs, this was a good decision. ---

It would be interesting to see a Pepsi challange between all the different Rear Seat options. Seems like all the rear seats are very close in Function. I would like to know what the Best Highest quality rear seat option is.I have seen some cheep ass Junk. Rear seats. Crappy paint flimsy metal. Crappy Hardwear. Vs the Modz Brand.That the seat I use. It’s called Modz Flip 4. My question is. Is their a better version of the Modz Flip 4 ---
