BLACK 7 Seater RSD IN STOCK (Please allow 2-3 days handling)
Premium Cabin Space Optimisation by Loaded Drawers
Transform the rear of your Toyota Prado 250 Series into a practical touring setup with the Loaded Drawers Prado 250 Rear Seat Delete Platform. Designed specifically for Australian touring and 4WD applications, this premium false-floor system replaces the bulky factory third-row seating with a durable, completely flat storage platform — dramatically increasing usable cargo space while reducing unnecessary weight.
The platform is fully removable and 100% self-installable, allowing you to return your Prado back to its factory 7-seat configuration whenever required for resale or passenger use. Best of all, installation requires absolutely no drilling, cutting, or permanent vehicle modifications.
Key Features & Benefits
Significant Weight Reduction
The complete platform weighs just 19kg, replacing the factory third-row seat and trim assembly weighing approximately 42kg. Reduce unnecessary weight and maximise your available payload capacity.
Additional 190L of Storage Space
By lowering the cargo floor footprint, the platform creates an impressive additional 190 litres of usable storage compared to the factory rear floor layout.
Integrated 48V Battery Ventilation
A custom forward-facing ventilation grille has been engineered into the design to maintain consistent airflow to the Prado’s factory 48V auxiliary battery system, helping prevent heat build-up during extended touring and harsh Australian conditions.
Factory-Style Fitment
The platform mounts directly to the factory seat mounting points using heavy-duty zinc-plated steel brackets. It retains access to the factory side storage compartments while also reusing the original cargo tie-down points for maximum practicality.
Australian-Made Quality
Hand-built using premium exterior-grade marine birch plywood and finished in durable, wear-resistant marine carpet for a clean OEM-style appearance. Finished with a premium leather access handle for a refined factory-integrated look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does removing the third-row seats void my Toyota warranty?
No. According to a Toyota Australia spokesperson via CarExpert:
“If a customer removes the third-row seats out of the 7-seat LandCruiser Prado variant, the warranty will remain valid for all components of the vehicle besides the third-row components.”
Our platform is specifically designed to maintain proper airflow around the factory 48V battery system for safe long-term operation.
Will removing the seats trigger warning lights?
No. Removing the third-row seating and installing this platform does not trigger dashboard warning lights or instrument cluster errors.
Do I need to re-certify my Prado as a 5-seater?
Vehicle compliance requirements vary between Australian states and territories. For example, NSW-registered vehicles may require engineering certification to officially change the seating capacity to 5 seats. We recommend checking with your local transport authority before modifying your vehicle registration details.
Can I order directly or through my Toyota dealership?
Yes. We supply directly to customers Australia-wide and can also ship directly to your preferred Toyota dealership or fleet team for pre-delivery installation.
