DIY False Floor Cheap and Easy Fiesta ST

#FiestaST #DIY #HowTo
In todays video I show you how I made a false floor for my Fiesta ST for under $75! I walk you through how to delete your rear seats as well. Hope this motivates you guys to give something like this a shot. Was a fun one for sure and definitely reduces some weight as well which has many benefits.
You do not have to use the same methods or materials that I used but this was my process and wanted to share with you all. And I didn't use wood bc that would defeat the purpose of weight reduction.
Measurents:
48 inches from the top all the way to the bottom
45 from bottom to top of curve
4 feet wide at top
39 inches wide at the shallow portion

    Looks clean. But if I could make a minor suggestion. Plywood over using the foam. You still want a useable space. Even if it means cutting the plywood into 2 or 3 sections for fitting. You can also beef up the plywood by nailing or screwing in some 1x3 to the underside as a kind of built in sub frame. Little extra cost over this build but not by much. And you don't have to worry about glue eating through the foam. So you could use fabric adhesive to help your material of choice adhere better.

    Funny you said that. I just recently took my false floor out and its crazy the difference it makes in sound. Without the back seats its definitely a little more cabin noise but the Styrofoam false floor absorbs a ton of noise. So without the false floor, its so much more road noise with just the back seats out

    if he changes his mind, he could easily add 1/5 luan on it and re-carpet it. Light, but strong. (that would have been a great way to future-proof it, but It's not like he's going to carry 50lb bags of river wash or quickcrete. I was thinking to make one similar, but w/luan over thinner foam and then hinge it where the cargo meets the seat bottom. That allows loading taller items through the door, side to side. Plus getting it into the car w/o breaking the wings. I've already put butyl sound mat in the whole back area and down to the rear floor. I'll add ensolite closed when I do the deck lid, but it is behind the plastics already.

    Just a thought. If you used steel, it would be more rigid, plus it would lower the car several inches while keeping the original suspension (for a while). Honestly, I like this idea, except as SOON as I did it, I'd need the back seat in. Looks great, though!
