Interior Upgrade / MODS

I am looking into upgrading the interior of my 98 F-150 XLT 4x4 3-door. The main area i am looking at is the rear seat area. I am looking for ideas on how to change this area, the seats are not important, thinking about removing or just putting in one bucket seat. I work long hours as a private investigator and most are spent in the truck, so the interior needs to be comfortable and the exterior needs to be stock.
Any ideas, suggestions and photos of your MODS would be very much appreciated.

Dan

Since your in Florida, I would start by adding some insulation. Keep the heat in or out depending on the time of year. Dyna mat makes some nice products, I did my floor and roof with the extreme and tac mat. The Tac Mat is what I would recommend for you, its on the order of fiberglass insulation, just more dense and compact.

If your carpentry skills are good, you can fashion a good seat and storage box for the back. Some 1/2" or 3/4" plywood and lots of foam, if you want to get fancy with the build, you can cover it with carpet and vinyl or any choice of materials.
