One idea is to turn the two front seats to face each other, then build a bed/crib to fit that space (basically a padded board laying on the seats). Build a bunk bed with the upper bunk sitting on the shoulders of the seat - put pegs in it to go down the head rest holes so it will not slide off. Build it thinking about how to store it too. Should hold kids up to 2 or 3 years old - or a dog or 2. Malcolm S
