Bad A$$ Seats Available | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 157 member | OP member Joined: May 2009 Posts: 157 | I work for a van converter and these second row seats are available. I am using 6 of them in my 91 G20 van. They include the seat tracks that bolt to the floor to maintain the factory sliding feature. they also have a quick release feature so they pop right out when you need to haul. I am going to mount the tracks and then router plywood around them to use the factory trim/seals to make it tidy with the carpet. should be sweet. Toyota Sienna seats. Dual armrest. Headrest. Reclining "Lounge feature with footrest. INTEGRAL SEATBELTS. Two tone grey leather. other colors and fabrics available. check the toyota website, any second row seat i can save from the scrap pile. but the lounge ones have the seatbelts built in. I am not sure how to ship them yet, but I am looking for 100 bucks a seat.

Don't run out of altitude, airspeed, or options at the same time.

Not really sure how modern seats mount to the bases. I might have to talk further before i commit, but as sweet as these are i am sure you can sell them as fast as you get them. I live near you so shipping is easy. Maybe when i can look at the set when you get your hands on them.

I have 8 of the gray ones stored in my g van back home right now. there are brackets that unbolt the factory quick releases from my quick initial look. they look to be about the same size as the factory buckets in the front, and I am planning on unbolting the factory ones and making a bracket to mount these, either to the factory mounts, custom bases, or maybe swivels.
When i get home first of february I will do some more looking and get some more photos of them.
Tan shouldn't be a problem. if the integral seat belts don't matter to you, I can also get the second row seats out of dodge and honda vans, but i dont think they are as cool....
If you have the time, you could always go by a toyota dealer and scope out a set.
I'll keep you posted.

Heck, i'd even want the middle seat for the kid. To keep things easy and safe, i would like to get extra sliders for the seats, that way, i can mount a set foreward and reverse. just remove the seat when i get to where i am going and put it in the reverse track. No need for swivels and i know when traveling the seats are safe. I can't tell from the track, but you may be able to reverse the seat in the track (not for travel, just for truck ins. Let me know when you get em. I am definately interested, very cool. I mean, who wouldn't want a recliner in their rig?

That lounge feature is awesome - my other half would flip if she had those!! If I end up not liking the rear seats I've got now, I may be interested too. Do you ever run into any other colors? Is there any particular time of year that you see more or less activity?

I would hate to know what a factory seat would cost to order, the plant manager told me a Toyota headliner is like 1,300 bucks if they screw one up. Dodge Caravans, Honda Odyssey, Toyota Sienna. All trim levels, all colors. I just need to know which model they are coming from, how many, a color, and I can have them saved. When i went to pick my gray ones up there were probably 100 of them sitting out in the snow, waiting to be torw down and recycled. Go here to see the Toyota Seats... http://www.toyota.com/sienna/interior-360.htmlBut, the Toyota seats are the nicest. And they are comfy. Looks like Bisque, gray, and black depending on the fabric and trim level. The highline seats are the ones with the built in seatbelts. They are building the last of the 2010's out now, and are starting 2011's. They basically gut the entire lower interior, and throw everything away (scrap/recycle) except the front seats and the rear seats. Need a center console? they have thousands.

I'd love to get rid of the clunky 100+ lb middle bench seat in my Astro and get a pair of these. The Astro/Safaris were designed before stow n go . | | | Re: Bad A$$ Seats Available | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 4,460 pooh-bah | pooh-bah Joined: May 2006 Posts: 4,460 | Wow, those would be awesome in a van!
