After recently converting my LE to add the spare, I put this together to hopefully save others some time digging through the other threads. Refer to this thread for additional discussion and pictures.
All of the required parts will cost around $650 (including wheel and tire). Additionally, you will need to have the tire mounted at a tire shop ($20-30).
This is a 2-3 hr DIY job if you are handy, however there are a couple of items you'll want to make sure you're comfortable with: seatbelts need to be removed and reinstalled (bolts need to be torqued properly), and some carpet needs to be cut (to install the jack). If you have the dealer install, expect to pay $400+ in labor.
Parts Required
1. Spare Tire Kit
Cost: $260
Part: 51900-08050xx, 51900-08060xx, 51900-08070xx, or 51900-08080xx, xx referring to the trim color - see post #2 for more details
This kit has all required parts, except for the wheel, tire, and some nuts. Includes: Trim panel, trim cover for tire, mounting bracket for tire, jack, jack cover, handles, lug nut wrench, and hardware (see attached photo from the install PDF)
The trim color options are B2, B3, C2, C3. For my base LE, the complete part number was 51900-08050B2. I think that all LE's use the same trim color, but you may want to call your dealer and provide the VIN to confirm. My door sticker says trim color FA10.
2. Jack Kit Nuts
Cost: $4
Part: 90176-06051 (order 4 of these)
Required to bolt the jack holder down to the floor. No idea why these are not included in the kit.
3. Spare Wheel
Cost: ~$260
Part: 42611-0R271
Note this shows unavailable on the official Toyota parts site, so either google around to buy direct from another dealer or ebay.
Other forum members have mentioned previous gen Sienna spare fits in the storage area, however a 3rd gen wheel did not work for me. There was some interference or a different offset preventing the wheel from sitting flush against the mounting hub. If you can find an older spare that does, this will save some dough, but ymmv.
4. Tire
Cost: ~$110
Size: 155/80R17
The stock brand is Falken, but anything will work. IE one option at Tirerack: FK-090 - SIZE: T155/80D17 / $107
Total: $650
When ordering, the easiest route seems to be at parts.toyota.com. Check several dealers in your area. Some charge MSRP ($300 for the kit), some are MSRP in-store, and not all offer local pickup for online. Do your dealer a favor and choose local pickup and not shipping. The box is gigantic.
Tldr, try to find a dealer that sells at discount with local pickup and you should not have any issues.
Install
Tools needed: Basic metric socket set and tools, torque wrench (to cover 30-50 ftlb), trim removal tool
See the attached PDF for instructions. It is pretty easy to follow. There were a couple of obvious items omitted: 2 brackets that hold the middle seat straps need to be removed, and transferring the trim piece in step 13 did not apply to my LE trim.
Overall, it's a fairly straightforward install. Cost-wise, the kit itself is actually a fair price considering what's included. Wheel+tire+mounting is actually the biggest expense at around $400. So, should you have the luxury of adding the $75 option from the factory, do it! (Of course, most did not have a choice)
