Looks great. What year are they from?
Looks like you have the cup holder on the side of the seat, too.

Mine came from the previous gen Caravan which ran through 2007. The conversion companies here in Phoenix continued to convert that gen Caravan even after the latest 2008 thru 2012 version came out. Starting in 2008, the Caravans with buckets in the center position were all stow and go versions and those are not conducive for our usage. The leather versions did not have cup holders and the later cloth seats has side airbags which fit in the place of the cup holders.

I have never seen airbags built into a REMOVABLE seat. It would either a wire that the operator would have disconnect and reconnect, or a self contained system that need a built in battery and sensors.
Seems like there would be liability issues.

I've spent the last ten or eleven years doing tens of thousands of miles on the Chrysler seats - in Mopar vans. They're comfortable, I like the leather better than the fabric, but that's personal choice (dog fur is easier to get off the leather). The coach had FlexiSteels in when I got it so they will stay. Resurrection of ther parts coach will likely include new seats, and the Mopars are on the list of possibles.

I installed the Chrysler seats. Depending on model year they are identical to Honda seats since they are both made by the same supplier:

is there any chart as to maybe year/pictures of the different honda/dodge seats? what options like the cupholder. what ones to stay away from.
I am curious about seats with the child seat tethering. I know it might be frowned upon putting my 3 year old up in the front seat of the coach. but she sure loves it. would be nice to get the teathering anchors so I know she is in that car seat tight.

Jon,
One of the second row seats in my daughter's Chevy Uplander has a built-in child seat. Might be an option but probably hard to find since the Uplander is not usually converted to wheel chair van.
