Convert 6 seat to 5 seat?

[MDR SEA]

Has anyone looked beneath the carpet to see if a 6 seat MX can be converted to a 5 seat fold down 2nd row?
Of course the service center sez it's impossible, as usual.
Thanks

Why do you want to do that?

I'm going to venture a guess that they want a second row that folds down... I would like to have the same thing, but I feel like at this point I would have to harvest the seats from a salvage car with the same interior color and still have to live with some body controller errors from disabling the seat track motors.

Found this, a good place to start. I just want to be able to remove the seats sometimes for camping -

I'm pretty sure that I saw a thread in this very forum that gave me enough information to believe the following points are factual:

• Yes, it is removable
• Someone else has removed it
• The missing seat causes warnings and may even prevent updates from installing

I'm not going to search for the thread, but if I saw it, it should be listed within the first few pages of the Model X forum or a Model X sub-forum.
