I am looking for a rear seat for a child seat. Preferrable one that would mount in with no fabrication.
What do you guys have? I am located near Seattle but would be willing to drive a bit for the right seat.
I have 2 Sienna seats in the garage, would also take a floor mount for one of these if someone has one
I mounted one inside the barn doors on both my previous 98 and current 2011 SMBs. Not terribly hard, just make sure you use the proper approved hardware. You can kinda see it in this photo, partially swiveled.
I have two Ford seats that should work. One is for the drivers side and one for the passenger side. Have one standard base, maybe two, and one swivel base for them. Am in Oregon City.

Current van: 2002 Ford E350 extended body camper with Colorado Camper Van pop top and Agile Offroad 4WD conversion.
I have a transfer flow oversize 44 gal tank the inside back and front bolts are a challenge to get nuts and washers on but it can be done. I used 1/4" aluminum 4" washers on the underside. Top side, if the mounting bolt lands in a valley I use a piece on 1/4" aluminum 2" wide to level out the valley.
We ended up using seats from a Ford Transit. It’s pretty easy to find brand new ones that are taken out when people convert the vans for work or camping. We liked this method because they had integrated seatbelts and anchors for car seats. I paid someone to install just to be safe but it really wasn’t that complicated.
Weld-tec designs offers an aluminum plate that bolts into the factory seat mount holes and has brackets welded to it to use the Sienna quick release mounts. A little pricey but makes mounting the Sienna seats true bolt in
I have a brown leather, reclining, swivel, removable chair. The bottom plate mounts on the floor and the chair and post can be easily removed. I assume it was the original. The van is a 2004 E 350 SMB. If you are interested I can send photos. I live in Ketchum, Idaho.
