Bro! TQVM for the very insightful/useful video. I am thinking to remove the left side 2nd row seat (to install welcab seat). From your video, I was keen about everything until the cable get cut. Would that cause trouble as if I want to put the pilot seat back in the future? I'm worrying connected cable might not be as strong as the original single piece, or the length might get shorten/lengthen so the future installation moght not be as firm as original?

@TCsAnythingGoes 2 жыл бұрын

Actually, you can make do without cutting the cable. There is a socket and a bolt that holds it to the seat. Just unplug the socket and unbolt it and u are good to go. I didn't do it this way cause I didn't want that white plastic socket getting in my way earlier.

Hi, thank you very much. But do you know if I can fit (1+ 1 wide seat) to have 3 seats instead of 2 ( in my 2gen. Alphard) in the middle raw (as my family is growing)? That has become very important now. Thank you

you will need to change the rails underneath and also get a 8 seater's second row for this. Not easy but doable.

@TCsAnythingGoes 4 ай бұрын

yes, its the same with the 3rd generation seats. Removing the rails on the 2nd and 3rd gen is pretty difficult. You have to jack the car up, loosen the exhaust system..... just to have access to the nuts underneath.

@TCsAnythingGoes Жыл бұрын

Ohhh i didn't remove the tracks. If you own an Alphard 10 series, its easy cause the bolts are on top. But 20 and 30 series Alphards have their bolts on the bottom of the car. You will need to loosen your exhaust and fuel tank to get access to them.

first is find the pilot seat. then you need the rails and wiring as well. Will need to drill the floor pan in order to install the 7 seater rails.

Same way it was removed.... except it takes a lot more muscle and sweat to lift the chair up as opposed to lifting it down the car. =). Wiring wise, just attach connectors and connect them.

if its shaking then there is a possibility that one of your bolts are loose. But if you are saying that it vibrates and makes a lot of noise, then you might want to take it out, flip it over and see what's loose.

Can I connect usb charger for that seats?

@TCsAnythingGoes Жыл бұрын

Connect a USB charger to the seats? Yes you can but wiring wise, you got two options. Connect to the wires that operates the seats (but this means the USB will be powered all the time as the wires are live even when the car is turned off ) or run a new positive from the fuse box. I was pondering on doing this but didn't proceed cause it means drilling a hole into the seat side cover to mount the usb plug.
