Clean install. I like how the "leather" material is salvaged for an OEM look.

 

I think I'd miss the armrest. Being able to get to the back would be awesome.

 

I won't miss the armrest because I have never used one. Getting from back to front without leaving the van is awesome!

 

Yes, the only thing that's left is the brown top piece. Everything else is gone. I see the other Toyotas have the same kind of huge console. I hate them. You feel like you're in a sardine can and it makes the whole inside feel so much smaller.

 

can we get a pic of the floor and what you did with the rear cup holders on the floor?

 

Do you mean the cup holders on the rear of the console? There aren't any now.

 

Thanks looks good! I was wondering if there were batteries or something else hiding under the center console. My old 04 had a fold up center console which was a perfect solution. I had to climb into the back in my 21 and almost ripped a leg off

 

I hear you. I'd have to be a four-year-old to get across that console.

 

We got a 2025 and I didn’t realize it was even possible to take that middle counsel out. It seems structurally in there pretty well. My mate and I can both, if we really have to, get from the front seat to the back but would be way better to lose that middle part.
Was reading your thread-journal but it’s a LOT of pics to go through to see pictures of the build. Nice journal though.

 

Looks good. It would be great to somehow either to swap out or be able to swivel the seats to turn around facing backwards.

 

He makes them for the Honda element and probably he can do something similar for the sienna Honda Element swivel seat — Hiro's Hotrods

 

Look awesome!

 

Thanks. I'm getting there.

 

Would consider the console mod if an armrest could be added, similar to the 2nd row captain’s chair

 

If you haven't come across Bruce Parks yet, he has done some amazing Sienna campervan stuff:
