Now you just know that you got to give us a walk-through of that gem.

Have you got a thread about it here in the mess hall or anything?!

Here you go.

Are those Sienna seats?

 

[1951M1078]

Yep. New.

 

[Another Ahab]

Yep. New.

Two of those for $100?!

Sure, it's the shipping that nails you ($175), but what's the catch?

Those seats look sweet, but are they made real cheap (light duty fabric, light duty frame) or something?

 

[1951M1078]

Its fake leather but seem heavy. Oh and they heavy.
He is here in Phoenix,so the Wife and I went and had a look first. For me no shipping.
Think their the second row seats from the Sienna.Not the front seats.

Looks like the only thing I will need to relocate is the seat belt winder.

Building the frame mount now.

I'd jump on that like a duck on a bug, Brother, that price is right.

The seats in that build are way fencer than mine. I have no leg rest and not sure it will go full reclined ? It does recline.

 

[mkcoen]

Even with having to pay shipping those are a pretty good find. I would have loved those when I was doing my '57 F100.

 

[1951M1078]

Front jig built and will start working out the fit.

 

[Another Ahab]

Man, that is a sweet welding table.

 

[1951M1078]

Think I have a good mount for the passenger seat and will take it to the shop and finish it up. Then on to the drivers side. Also thinking of adding one to the center seat ?



Almost looks like it belongs their ? I even think I will be able to use the side plastic with luck ?Still have some trimming but ?

 

[Another Ahab]

You're right, it looks like OEM the way it fits, nice!

 

[coachgeo]

Would love to see a pic of someone sitting in them. Curious how much lateral support there is; thus the question. Hard to tell from the pics how far out the lateral supports protrude without some perspective. Wonder if two could fit back to back in the center facing side windows?

 

[1951M1078]

I will see about getting a model to take photos in the seat.

No. Their is only about 18" to 16" behind with the seat back . The seat is about 25" wide. The seat is back a little., Wife does not like the look out over the edge ! LOL But she is the same way about the RV/Semi.

As for the lateral support,its seams very good and love the arm rests ! Still need to fab the drivers side then I can tell you more.

I'm going to build two plat forms for our dog's to be able to look out the side windows. Will hinge them so we don't lose the storage.
Have pulled the driver's storage box and the radio stand on the passenger side.

 

[1951M1078]

Also you could go to the Sienna dealer and try out the seats. My seats are from a 2017. Think that is a Toyota product ?

I was thinking about going and checking these seats from the same guy. He advertises a bunch of different types on Craigslist. Since yours are coming along so well and look great, I guess I will need to start working on mine as soon as I get a break from work. Keep up the good work and fabrication.

 

[1951M1078]

Thanks Allan. I'm slow but getting their.

He has a bunch ! Think he said he gets 15 set's a day .
