    Fantastic design. I'm going to take inspiration and apply it to my 2003 Land Cruiser Prado 90 series here in England. Many thanks for the video.

    Looks like a great design. And this way you get to use your middle row seats if you ever need to. Fantastic work!

      Exactly. Don’t want to lose the functionality of the middle row

  • @davidmoneyfitnessjourney320

    Man I love this platform. I am thinking about buying one from Chris as well. I'm down in San Diego so he's local for me. The only thing stopping me is my wife wants to keep the third row seats for now.
