I have an idea that I really want to pull through with...
As always my really ****** MS paint example, BTW this is a 2 door LT tahoe with no rear seats (bench seat) -

This involves/shows the following.

* Gutting out the back.
* Custom Cutting A thick piece of plexiglass to fit the tahoe, to cover the end top to bottom start from where the captain seats end.
*Creating some kind of insulation cushion for the plexiglass on the edges and then fixating it to the tahoe.
*RhinoLining the Plexi glass both sides all over
* Rhinolining the entire back of the vehicle as if it was a truck bed (from the plexiglass back)
*Laying down black carpet in the front cab.
*Redoing everything in the front cab, Leather/Carpet/Dashboard/CenterConsole/etc...

Is this Feasable / POSSIBLE?!

And if I was to do this where could I think of putting 1 12" sub maybe in a custom made center console?

I've just always wanted to do this.. =D!
You don't like the idea?
Well the reasons why.
*Cooling the entire truck is not needed (don't need to cool off equipment/delivery stuff)
*The A/C sucks and the cab would be much smaller
*This way I don't have to redo the whole truck just the cab I'll be sectioning the rest I can gut and rhino line it and not worry bout' it.

sounds like you should have bought a short bed standard cab OBS. hahaha. i dunno, still don't see why it would be worth it. especially since your truck looks really good from the outside, interior can't be that bad.

now if you did it and cut out the back windows/roof, it would be interesting. hahaha

guess its not my style. don't think you could talk me into doing it to mine, and my interior is getting thrashed hauling all the lumber/trim/etc for the house remodel.

It's definitely a possibility and can even be done in one weekend (minus the cab makeover), but why plexi if you're going to rhinoline both sides? Acrylic sheets like lexan and plexi can get expensive, especially a sheet that large and thick.

Haha yeah... The goal is to make the front a cab and the rear like a bed seperate from the cab just by putting in some kinda seperater whether it be plexiglass or plastic or whatever I'm not sure...

JKmotorsports, you almost seem to know your way with doing something like this. More info on how i'd insulate it if you could tell me, or another material or way I could go about doing it if it seems to exspensive.

For teh seperator I would use real glass or its going to be unplesantly loud on the freeway, and very hard to cool or heat with no insolation value. Remember metel is a conductor, glass is an insolator.
