Thanks for posting about the false floor. I've seen the passenger vans so kind of knew there had to be space under there but wasn't sure how to get into it. I had visions of having to saw through the deck! 

 

Is there also space where third row passengers would put their feet?

Discovering an issue with mine. 2020 cargo XLT. Nothing is bolted. All of the metal supports and panels are spot welded over the false floor. Was really

hoping to not do any cutting. Anyone with insight on these new ones?

 

Yep...I just discovered the same thing (and I'm in the US, so it seems it's not specific to Canada anymore).  A whole lot more of a commitment to have to cut it rather than just unbolt it.  Now I need to decide if it's worth doing as there's no going back.

I am a 2016 cargo version owner and I bought a a set of the second row bench seats. Now I am wondering how to install these seats to the floor. I know that I need to do what you did to remove the false floor, but which hardware do I need to buy to mount the seats? Any opinions will be greatly appreciated! I have been searching for this information online for so long and there is no guaranteed answer.

Thanks a lot! I read related posts including this one many times, and finally I realized that the seats I bought are for short wheel base models. So be aware my friends, do not get seats like these if your van is a long wheel base model. Now I am gonna take the harder route to make these seats fit no matter what it takes, cutting, welding, etc. Challenges are annoying but also fun. Cheers!
