    Sleep science experiment results show that napping while slightly inclined prevents you from entering deep sleep. Waking up from a nap feeling worse (super groggy) is a result of entering deep sleep. When you don't enter deep sleep you will feel more completely rested from from napping. There are more details involving length of nap timed to follow different sleep cycles, etc.. but that's a simplified version of the story. I'd suggest not modding the seats.

    I'd be also interested in this mod. I recently spent the night trying to sleep in the front seat and waking up every hour or two just wasn't cutting it.

    Jesus......you never know what kind of advice you'll get around here from day to day. That's about the last thing I thought I'd read when I opened this thread. Too funny!

    Any one figure out how to do adjust the front seats to a full recline ?

    I just removed my backseat and header and I could see myself sleeping in the front seat whenever I go camping instead of the camper shell for A/C.

    I don't think you can recline the front seat to flat in an AC. Probably better off laying across the back area..
