This after-market component transforms a standard two-passenger golf cart into a four-passenger vehicle. It typically consists of a seat, a supporting frame, mounting hardware, and sometimes includes additional features such as armrests or a cargo bed conversion capability. These kits are designed for easy installation onto existing golf cart models, expanding passenger capacity.
The significance of these additions lies in their ability to increase the versatility of a golf cart. Historically, golf carts were primarily used for transporting golfers and their equipment around the course. The introduction of seating expansions allows for broader applications, including neighborhood transportation, campus mobility, and recreational use for families or small groups. The benefit extends to improving social interaction and practical utility.
