You may want to check out www.campmor.com. I've done tons of camping/backpacking over the years and they always seem to have the best prices. If you're looking for inexpensive, they have one that is 74 in. x 39 in. x 5 in. for only13.97. Looks like that's the standard size for a twin air mattress. Double is the next size up and you get killed on the width of those with them being 54". Of course someone could always fab a custom one.

vanhate....That's the same price they have on ebay. The one on ebay includes the electric pump. Inflates the mattress in less than a minute. :D

Slept and christened? Well i've done both. Slept, i was in the parking lot of myt work (hey i had a long night and it's almost 2 hour commute, so sleeping there sounded like the better idea, plus i was partying in that area anyways) All i did is flip the driver seat back.... yeah it sucked. The back part of the front seats, when folded flat with the bottom part of the seat, leaves a large hump, very uncomfertible. Now as for chrisening, well it was done in the back seat, not folded down, but the front seats were pulled and folded all the way to the dash. Man you could have an orgy back there with that much room!

Waited for my girlfriend to get out of work a few times. I'm 5'4" ( yeah yeah I know) When I try to sleep in the xB, I push the driver seat and back rest all the way back. Rest my body there and rest my legs on the passenger side seat.

Don't know if that makes sense but I guess it was comfy. I slept probably for 1 hour straight without a prob...

I just throw down four O.E.'s

after that, I can sleep comfortably on the asphalt under the car for a couple of days.

Being I'm going for the JDM look, I'm currently having custom tatami mats made for the inside of my xB. Also, being the rear seats don't lay completely flat a custom platform in the rear cargo area is being made to level the whole rear area and will also house the Digital Audio/Video Control Surround System. The tatami mats will be made in a way that the rear seats can still be used up or down. Pic's will be posted when completed.

By the way, are you in Japan? I'll be there very soon to buy bB parts. Maybe we can hook up?

I am 6'4". 225... I slept pretty comfortably in my xB. I used 1 pillow and a sleeping bag. I used another pillow to lay on between the front seat and back seat to make it more comfortable. If you have a thin sleeping pad (bed roll) or air mattress, it would be good to go.

God I had to chase that stuff when I drank it. Cheap though. As for the cristening. I'm 6' and it works sideways on the back seats. Used to use the front seats in my 626 but the fronts so so much lower on the box i found out. Oh well no cristening for a while for me (**** chics :-D)

I would like to see one of those in a xB. I would think if you did this, & went to bed. Better not have a nightmare. The moment you wake up, you will knock your self back into a hard sleep

It might work then. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=1818708 I would look more into something like that. I would first take the measure ments to make sure it would fit.
