Well crap. This is an expensive fix

You’re telling us that you care about that part but you’re probably trying to tell us that you don’t care about that part.

Ha! You've hit upon one of my pet peeves. Although most people probably couldn't care less.

What do rear passengers think of these hard seat backs and grills hitting their knees, knuckles, getting caught on things or whatever? Back in the day I recall riding in some vehicles having hard plastic seat backs, if wasn't the most comfortable experience.

Since that net is mostly for the rear passenger's convenience...

Remove the net and the Molle panel,
Make responsible child sit behind that exact seat every time,
Do NOT let said child bring any electronics, toys, or food into Bronco,
Until they work off or save up enough moey to pay for the replacement.

I teach teenagers, and some of them have grown up with ZERO sense of responsibility because every time they lose or break a phone, insurance covers it, every time they lose or break a Stanley cup or Hydroflask, mom and dad replace it.

Here here!
Our lost and found literally has 200-300 expensive water bottles and Stanley cups by the end of the year that nobody cared enough to reclaim.

Start them young learning the consequences of breaking someone else's stuff, and they will take better care ofvtheir own stuff as they get older.

All I've learned from this thread is that you can get MGV take offs for 2 door Broncos for $379. As a Badlands owner I'm tempted to snap up a set and put them in storage for some future date when I might damage or wear mine out. Oh, and that there's a bag hanger on the back of the seat apparently.

So one of my kids broke the piece off I’m pointing at. That entire back panel is apparently all one piece. Retail is over $600. Even at the discount places it’s $400 plus a ton of shipping

Yep...kids are wonderfully destructive aren't they!!! I wouldn't replace it, I would trim off with tin snips and smooth the edges off with sand paper and drill a 1/8 hole through the piece your pointing at and the piece it behind it and put a aluminum pop rivet...

Check online with car-part.com and just enter your year, model, and zip and look for for the part (not sure what it's called) in the list. If you can't find that, then just search for the front seat (L or R) and then closest location. Then call that junkyard and see if they'll sell you just the panel.

I agree with the dremmel crowd. However, if you want the utility of a hook, you can always add this afterwards:

You can even get in different colors to fit your interior.

Relax, it's a Bronco. If that little piece bothers you, and I get it, never under any circumstances allow a Bullmastiff to ride along! Just file it smooth.

You're not fooling anybody here. We all know full well that the Bullmastiff does'nt "ride along", he drives your Bronco and YOU ride along!

He defiantly would if I let him in the front! He's on a bungee cord and does enough damage in the back! I wouldn't have it any other way though, love him!

That's a back seat people issue.

That's why I drive a 2-door.

At that price just go for everything.
