I could do that, yes....but then if one of my kids bumps into anything the light is dust.

Hello everyone! Brand new member here and am loving this forum so far. I have tried searching but couldn't find what I am looking for.

I am supposed to pick up a 1990 G8 today and have already been trying to learn about them but there doesn't seem to be much out there. Anyone know why? Also, I need to add a rear seat but am having a hard time finding any that seem to be specifically for it.

Found one at golfcartstuff and ended up calling them and they claim it will fit the G8 but I am not too sure. They claim their website saying G2-G9 means it will fit those generations (G2 through G9) but when I told them the G2/G9 appears to be a specific model cart they didn't know what I was talking about.

If there is not a specific kit for the G8, what is the best one to buy without having to weld anything?

I assume this may be the same thing for the rear support for the roof and front struts support for the windshield? Thanks.


This is the same kit I purchased for my G8. Can you show me how you made it work?

To my knowledge, there is no rear seat kit. Anything can “be made” to fit

I suppose I better introduce myself. Name is Kevin, I am from Indiana, just south of Fort Wayne. The cart I am currently working on was purchased by my father and I last November for a steal of $100, Yamaha G8. The previous owner said it died and could not get it to fire up. Put a new battery, new gas, and new spark plug and we were cruising. Of course painted it hot rod black, bought a cheap set of wheels locally, and got it street legal.

Fast forward to last week...

My father passed away June 27, 2019 and when he passed I vowed I would do what I thought and knew he wanted to do to this old thing that we named "Black Betty".

So now I am just waiting for fed ex for the remaining parts to put this new 420 clone on her

$100 is a great deal for a G8. Was everything there for that price? Looks like a great cart. Sorry about your dad.

I made mine out of 2” exhaust tubing with freeze plugs for end caps. Then had powder coated
