Installing and Outfitting the 2024 Raptor Build's Seat Back MOLLE Panels

Arguably, the most important place to secure your gear and ensure essentials aren't bouncing around is inside the passenger compartment of your vehicle. This is precisely why we designed our BuiltRight Seat Back MOLLE Panel Kits. These are comprised of rugged 11ga. steel and serve as organizational tools for the inside of your truck/SUV, providing countless options for increasing modular storage and keeping you safe locking down equipment.
Using some of our Mounts and Attachments like Packout Mounting Brackets, a Long Arm Clamp Riser Mount and a couple MOLLE Pouches, we organized and configured our Seat Back Panels perfectly for daily and off-road use. We added some handy smaller accessories such as heavy duty twist-ties and TitanStraps on the panels for smaller essentials - Matt currently has a set of work gloves stashed under these and they're ready to hold a lot more.

Pro Tip:

Adjust your seat all the way forward and up to easily access the bottom of your seat structure when releasing the upholstery to install the lower bracket. We also use a random tool or a clip to hold the upholstery up and out of the way while installing that lower bracket.

Pro Tip:

It is not essential to reclip all of the plastic fasteners that were holding the seat upholstery in place once the lower bracket is installed - feel free to reattach your upholstery as much as you would like to! There are no cuts or modifications needed in order to install these panels, if you find yourself wanting to take a knife to your seats, please give us a call or chat first.

The installation process for these Seat Back MOLLE Panels is quite straightforward, and we were able to breeze through installing both sides in about 30 minutes. Keep in mind, depending on what you decide to install on the panels, this amount of time will change significantly... pouches are much quicker to install than a few Packout mounting kits and riser mounts. From securing the upper bracket to the headrest posts, the lower bracket to the seat frame, and bolting the main MOLLE panel to both, this install should be pretty painless.

When your needs change and you want to adjust your setup, reconfiguration of our Seat Back MOLLE Panels is simple. For mounting and reconfiguring rigidly mounted equipment/mounts, our MOLLE Nuts are the perfect solution for quick changes. If you're planning on installing products temporarily, we highly recommend them - MOLLE Nuts eliminate the need to squeeze a nut and wrench behind the panel (or entirely remove the panel) to install or reconfigure equipment. In addition to using MOLLE Nuts, our 16" x 23.5" Universal MOLLE Tech Plate (the same MOLLE Panel we use in the Seat Back Kit) is available individually for those of you who need different loadouts staged up and ready to be swapped onto your seat backs at a moment's notice.

We manufacture Seat Back MOLLE Panel Kits for most popular trucks on the market, F-150/Raptor/Super Duty, Ranger, Bronco, RAM, Tacoma, Silverado, Sierra, and we have more fitments coming soon - if you're interested in our Seat Back MOLLE Kits but we don't support your ride yet, please reach out and let us know what you're working with. We'll get you added to the list and you'll be the first to know when they're available! Check out our Staged Kits by clicking here.

We love being able to carry a Packout box securely in our vehicles, so we outfitted the passenger Seat Back MOLLE Panel with our Mounting Bracket System for Milwaukee Packout. We placed these right alongside another daily essential, a small fire extinguisher. While we normally choose to use two of our Super Clamp Riser Mounts for most fire extinguishers, because of this one's size we decided to use a single Long Arm Clamp Riser Mount and a heavy duty twist-tie to stabilize the bottom. This leaves a good amount of real estate open on the upper portion of the panel for anything else we might need to mount. On the driver's side Seat Back Panel we opted for our MOLLE Pouches. Specifically a Large MOLLE Pouch on the bottom of the panel and a Small MOLLE Pouch above it, which also leaves some open real estate - just in case!

What other equipment and accessories do you want to see us install on this truck? Let us know in a comment, through our social media, or by contacting us directly by chat through the site! We want this 2024 Raptor Build Project to be as viewer/reader/customer-fueled as possible. Give us a holler!
