yes i am considering buying a NV200 that someone converted but when bed is extended no place for my dogs to easily enter or leave vehicle so I am considering no passenger seat and creating a dog zone for dog beds and access to vehicle which seems to be a viable option. If I can figure out climate control IT'S ON LOL ! THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO. If I had no pets probably my fridge and water storage or could do a removeable desk/table
@@robinnorthrup8811 100% guaranteed the airbag light is on full time or flashing constantly, and the airbags and seatbelt pretensioner probably won't work in a collision. I've removed the seats in dozens of these vans and didn't disable the airbags. One was even totalled and the drivers airbags worked as designed. You have to pull the entire wiring harness and seat sensors from the seat, along with the occupancy sensor module, relocate it all(usually under the console), and then add a resistor or dummy plug where the seat airbag used to plug in. Sounds harder than it is, and it is reversible. The only problems I ran into was dealing with the seat sensors. Sometimes I had to bolt them together in a way that they have a little bit of pressure applied to them. I made a poor quality video showing how to do it.
@@turdpailsandtrails check this guys channel for his video on how to remove the seat and fix the SRS. Best results would be adding resister before triggering the SRS lights and codes. Thanks again mr TP&trails
There were a few moments where I didn’t know if I had it or not but super happy that I was able to accomplish it. And interestingly enough having the camera sitting down on the floor so I can see better was actually quite helpful
I love your energy. Great job on that seat. I heard you are coming to Colorado. It’s Sunday and cool here today. Nice to know you will be in the state.
I think that's awesome so now you can put whatever you want there which is great that's what I did to mine just got a friend's seat and I have had there so that I can sleep in there I have a really small car
Cool. Well only cool that you got it done but HOT and Humid…. Will be neat to see what you change in the van…sort of like ( but smaller ) moving things around your home. Refresh and enjoy.
The van will continue to change a bit and I am very excited about the things that I can now do. I have something big planned I just I’m trying to logistically figure out how to make it work
Absolutely there was a huge sense of relief and accomplishment once I was able to achieve this. Now I have lots of possibilities and as I’ve been using it I have been very please so far with the space
You are awesome and isn't it a good thing that you didn't have to use that Jack with a secured in like it was I would have never thought that you would have to use tools to get a jack out good going
I’m super happy that I have a jack however I don’t know that I would’ve been able to access it so knowing now that I have it in a bit more of an easy to access place is very good
You did it! I also have the NV200 and make take my seat out someday. It would be nice to be able to crawl in back without getting out of van. This is great. Thx
My mom was watching with me, she also has a NV 200. She said thank goodness for roadside assistance!!! Well done and we often put bearers on ourselves that prevent us from moving ahead. We can not wait to see what you do with the space?? Mom thinks that perhaps your fridge will find a new place. Cheers and stay safe.
Not sure I’d have the courage or stamina in the heat to complete, but must be rewarding to have stuck with it to the end, and successfully accomplish the task! Way to go! 👍🏻
Good for you! OMG, can you imagine trying to get that jack out if you had a flat! Insane planning on their part. Oh my, so much more space. I won’t do that as I have a cat who loves ‘his’ seat. I usually stack blankets on the seat, topped of with a soft pet bed so he can look out and enjoy the scenery when he’s not sleeping. We work it out. His food/water are in the passenger foot area. Usually his carrier and litter box is behind the drivers seat. Somehow I need to figure out how/where I can sleep. I may just get the floor all one level and use an open concept. Much more flexibility and if I want to ‘build’ I can do that later. Great job!
When I was removing the seat and notice just how strapped in the Jack was it made me very nervous lol I don’t know that I would have been able to remove this in the position that my bed was in in addition to the seat. So this is a good positive change for many reasons
You are the best at getting a job done no matter what it takes. Can't wait to see what you do with the extra space. PS. I finally bought a power station!
That one is something that I would be a little bit afraid of also. But it could be something a little bit more simplistic than what you think. You never know until you try I appreciate that you are looking into it and taking note of your limitations and also what you feel comfortable doing
Yay I get so excited for your videos Bunny! I've seen some videos where people have had this professionally done and the mechanics still had issues with the airbag situation it wasn't the same make as yours though
It is supposed to be able to pop out however I had struggled with figuring out how to do so and I believe now it was because of how the bolts were placed and the direction I was attempting to remove it from
I did ask a mechanic about the light and he said it will remain on following this unless you have something to put inside the connector fuse or deactivate the front dash air bag, which i didn't want to do. But this is so doable!!
Great job. I am not that confident that I could do it. I've been wanting to remove the rear seats and set up a bed so I can go camping with the dogs. I have a 2019 Kia Soul so there isn't a lot of space but it is doable.
You did well removing that seat! I hv been contemplating removing my passenger seat as well but I hv not been able to decide for going back and forth on why I should or shouldn't. Ik removing it will help gas mileage which is a huge plus as well as open the space up. I can't wait to see what you do wth that space.
I am so inspired by your attitude. I've always tried to overcome my fear and anxiety, but I think this "making room" project would totally freak me out. But I'd definitely try!
I plan on buying an NV 200 eventually and the first thing I will do is remove the passenger seat. I realize with a modern vehicle even the seats have electronics (seat belt sensors / air bag sensors) that must be dealt with and I wondered how this process would be handled . Now I know! My confidence has been renewed and I dont have to wonder how to safely do this when the time comes. Thanks for showing how to do this! Love this idea!
That would also be an option or putting a swivel on it so you can move it back-and-forth I thought about that but I really don’t have enough room for some of the other things that I will be adding to the van so taking it out was a must for me for the time being.
I think if there's any chance the seat is connected into the airbag system - it's a job for a trained technician. I've read that cables and connectors that are part of the airbag system are mostly yellow in color. I've also read that you should disconnect the battery and let it sit for an hour before removing a front seat in order to avoid having an airbag explode if you do something that could set it off. My '08 Honda minivan has (1) power seats and (2) front and side airbags. If I get radical and want the front passenger seat removed I'll pay my Honda mechanic to do it. Look at Lady Bugout's video here on RUclips - she had the passenger seat in her Ford Transit Connect removed by a technician, and the video shows the work he had to do to get the sensors working correctly after the seat was out.
The light does come on and will continue to come on and less I secure something to the cord however I spoke to Mechanic and they said they should not affect any of the front passenger airbag which is good.
@@BunnyPlaysHere I assumed you'd checked it out before you started the removal. Just thought I'd mention the airbag issue in case anyone reading here hadn't thought about it. There's so much tech in vehicles these days, it's crazy!
I was thinking the same thing. I'm investigating in a solar washer/ dryer machine and placing it in place of the passenger chair or making that spot my garage 🤔? Decisions Decisions 🤔 That took courage my friend, you did wonderful and the next project will be a cinch.
Thanks for posting this Bunny! This was so helpful and looks easier than I imagined. I'm shopping for my first van and going to look at a 2021 NV200 tomorrow! Now I need to find the follow-up video on how you are using the space. I'm also wondering how you like the Weather Guard shelving you installed. I had been thinking the same thing then saw in one of your recent videos that you had installed one. Those things are priceeeyyy though! 🤔
It did but I checked and this isn’t a problem. The airbag still has function if I need it it just shows that it is not connecting to the seat so the side airbag which is attached the seat will not work.
Thanks for sharing this. I have a 2015 Nissan Quest that I still have all the seats. Yeah I don't have all the space i would like, but it has to be a passenger van too (not often though). I am able to remove one seat from the center so I'm considering that. Ideally I want to remove both center seats and center console for all that storage and usable space for my fridge and changing/open space. More to think about on my setup...
I knew you could do it, a can do attitude can do almost anything. Wow, that opens up a lot of space. I can't help but think what the space would be like if you moved the bed to the driver's side. Can your shelf unit be mounted on the passenger side??
been following your journey for about a month now.. and find your vids entertaining and informative.. awesome job BTW!! #girlpower!!! I recently purchased that SUV tent that you "installed" (HYSTERICALLY) a few vids back.. my question is.. did you decide it wasn't for you?? I have an 18 passenger shuttle I'm wanting to convert.. but.. I'm 60 now and having a hard time doing any of the build by myself.. sooooooooo.. I'm wanting to get out there in my SUV.. but.. the tent should provide the extra space I need.. just wondering your thoughts..
I actually still have the tent and I use it whenever I’m going to be in more static locations for a longer amount of time. It’s nice to have as an outdoor room that has some ventilation that allows me to be able to stand up and also function in that space.
Yes, I have used it many times I just don’t choose it whenever I’m going to be moving in a more rapid pace. If something I’d like to set up when I’m going to be in an area for a while.
I've done it! With your knowledge! I've removed my Nissan NV 200 passenger seat! I'm traveling for almost 2 years! I travel the USA! One important question; what do you do with the air bag light that blinks on and off?
Hi Bunny-you’re great! I’ve got a 2015 NV200 and I’m planning on taking the front passenger seat out as well. I can’t get a straight answer on how to deal with the plugs under the seat. Some suggestions were: 1. Put a .23 ohms resistor in the plugs (I can’t for the life of me find a .23) 2. Put a 1.5 ohms resistor in. Now the second one sounds more realistic but I don’t know what wattage to get. Apparently that makes a huge difference. I am hoping somebody sees this and can help me out. But I’m also curious what you have done since removing your seat. Thanks in advance and happy travels!
I looked into this and the results of not plugging these following removal... a mechanic told me that if i don't deactivate the passenger airbag entirely or plug these with fuses the light will stay on.. i asked him how this would impact me on the road and he said it would just annoy me... i looked around for the plugs and couldn't find them either so opted just to leave them uncapped personally.
I was just at the shop to have mine removed but when we tried it the airbag light came on; my mech says it disables the whole system…so I’m currently looking for the plugs as well
@@shannonmathieson4944 I tried to make a video explaining how to keep your airbags functional after removing the passenger seat. It's pretty crappy compared to this video ...but kind of explains how to keep your airbags working. If you have any questions I'll try to help over there.
Watching this a couple of days ago, got me thinking. I know you want space so removing the seat makes sense, but did you happen to notice… How hard would it be to reverse the seat - put it back in facing the rear of the van? I think that would be a cool idea for me, but will it fit?
Great video, thinking about doing the same thing and wondering if you encountered any issues after removing the passenger seat? I've seen some users who have commented that the driver side airbag becomes inactive if you disconnect the passenger side, do you know if that's the case?
yes that's the case. If you don't want working airbags just unbolt it and unplug the passenger seat. If you do then I made a video(not nearly as well put together as this one) that sort of shows how to keep your airbags functioning.
I totally get why you removed the seat. But I want to reverse mine (same van make it face the rear). When you took yours out, do you think it would fit back in the opposite way? Does it look like the bolts would fit? Just screw it back down facing the rear?
I really don’t want to have my bed in the section because this is the section that is visible from those passing by. So instead I will be making a couple of other changes that will open up the space and I’m very excited ab

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Would you ever consider removing your passenger seat?
Yes, definitely. I am interested in knowing if you had any dash lights come on after taking the seat out.
yes i am considering buying a NV200 that someone converted but when bed is extended no place for my dogs to easily enter or leave vehicle so I am considering no passenger seat and creating a dog zone for dog beds and access to vehicle which seems to be a viable option.

Watching this a couple of days ago, got me thinking. I know you want space so removing the seat makes sense, but did you happen to notice… How hard would it be to reverse the seat - put it back in facing the rear of the van? I think that would be a cool idea for me, but will it fit?
Great video, thinking about doing the same thing and wondering if you encountered any issues after removing the passenger seat? I've seen some users who have commented that the driver side airbag becomes inactive if you disconnect the passenger side, do you know if that's the case?
yes that's the case. If you don't want working airbags just unbolt it and unplug the passenger seat. If you do then I made a video(not nearly as well put together as this one) that sort of shows how to keep your airbags functioning.
I totally get why you removed the seat. But I want to reverse mine (same van make it face the rear). When you took yours out, do you think it would fit back in the opposite way? Does it look like the bolts would fit? Just screw it back down facing the rear?
So how much room did you gain after removing the seat? 9 cubic ft? More?
I am not sure of the exact amount but it certainly allows for a lot more overall space and feel of room
Why not push the bed to the front? Then you will get a lot of space in the back and dont have to do that big change.
I really don’t want to have my bed in the section because this is the section that is visible from those passing by. So instead I will be making a couple of other changes that will open up the space and I’m very excited ab
@@BunnyPlaysHere That sounds wise. I didnt think of that aspect. Probably because Im not a vanlifer. Yet!😁
Im so exited to see your rebuild !
Us ladies have to be independent. You show women that they can do anything they set their minds to do.
Absolutely I think it’s very important that we at least try to do things and if we can’t that’s OK but trying is part of the battle
Absolutely
