Careful when using the rear seat as your attachment point of between the frame and top box. There have been many a horror stories of the latching system letting go and tossing your **** down the road. Seats made to be sat on and to prevent some one from getting to you underwear storage. It not made to have 30lbs tugging at it from 4 direction over and over, so don't put to much wieght into it and it should be fine. Even my box mounting plate is only rated for 8 lbs but I've carried as much as 30+ lbs on my 1500 mile weekend trips with zero problems but mounting plate is sercured to the sub frame directly.
