Toyota Sienna 03 To 09 Interior Rear Panel Removal 

Replacing my rear speakers and adding sound dampening - so MUCH NEEDED instructions. Thanks for your clear and quick video that makes this so understandable - appreciated sir.

I am replacing the flimsy worn-out rear 12V outlet with a better made marine-grade one. I run a cooler in the back. Also once the panel is off I'll be able to pound out a minor dent. This was very helpful. Thanks!

Sir, I can't thank you enough for posting this video. Two things that stress me out when trying to do this kind of thing: 1. Not having info on how. 2. Breaking the clips or fasteners because of the first thing. I need access to the top of the unibody rails that the rear hitch screws into from underneath...great video!!!

Trying to hide rear view cam wire on a 2011 Sienna base. Super helpful. Many thanks to you!

Wanting to change a speaker and have been putting it off because I had no idea how to get the panel off. Thank you for posting, my wife will be happy😀

Thank you so much for this video! I never would have gotten it off on my own!

you do a great job, it's make easier for me to fix my sienna

Thank you. My van was hit while parked on the street. I needed to fix a dent. Was looking for some help on removing interior panels. Thank you very much. Your instructions were precise and 'to-the-point'

Very useful video, thanks for taking the time to put it together, much appreciated!

Thank you so much for making this video! I've been looking for months to try to find out how to fix the second row seat belt and i couldn't even get to it. Your video made it so easy for me to do it myself! Now to fix the seat belt!

My daughter and I just used this video to remove the panel from her 2013 Sienna since we could not find one for the later model years. There were a couple of minor differences that were easy to adapt to, including removing a couple straps that hold the baby seat. Interior light and attachment point are different, but easy. When we got to removing the panel, things looked very different. The panel on later models is made up using two panels, a lower like this, but fastened to it is and upper panel. So there are two panels rather than one. It looks like you take them out separately, but you don't! They are fastened permanently together making a large panel similar to the one in this video. Do NOT try to separate them. We broke one joint trying, but will be able to fix that. Removal is really similar to the one here, although the design is a little different. Popping the front out is easy. The trickiest part is starting at the upper back corner and pop out the back edge as shown here. You have to work your way forward popping out snaps in the door pocket. Its a little tricky and you can kind o get your hand behind as you go and pull with a bent tool. There are three snaps at the top of the pocket. I wish that the guy who made this video would make one for the later model. I am sure it would be great like this one. Thanks.

Thank you so much, I'm buying an 04 Sienna soon for a camper conversion, and plan on modifying that exact panel. And the reference photos are also very useful. With liability rules, my local wrecking yard brings all parts to the front, no looking at actual vehicles allowed. Hard to get interior measurements without climbing inside one. Thanks again.

Thank you. This was very helpful. I removed the passenger side panel on mine and the process was nearly the same. Your advice about pulling the panel off from the top was useful. I had to get at a terrible squeak coming from a recently installed shock. The little access panel for it wasn’t big enough. Sprayed some silicone in between the bushings and problem solved.

Thank you Sir!!! was afraid I would break it but now I see the method. Thank You!

Excellent video! Very well done, clear instructions. I might have to get to the rear heater on the other side and this is the video I’ll watch! Thanks!

Simple, perfect, life and timesaver! Thank you very much!

Fixing the AC in a 2006, thank you for the video.

I will attemp to repair a dent in back side near the tail light. I have to remove the side panel and this video comes in very handy. Thanks.

thanks , had to replace that back window and this helped.

Thanks for your excellently done video. Many helpful little tips. Love your pleasant and professional narrating.

Best video out there for this! Thank you. This was so easy to follow

Nice… need to remove panels and build out as a CamperVan

Thanks very helpful! Don’t need to do this yet but when the speakers go I will be replacing them all!

Thanks so much I really appreciate you making this video! Very easy to do after watching your great video.

This is great thank you very much I want to remove the panel so that I can apply sound deadening material

So I replaced the speakers on both sides in the back today, and can say both side panels are just as easy and are VERY similar. Only real differences are no trunk light in the rear, but there is a door for the jack and tools. Don't have to but I removed it just to have a handle to grab onto...just saying since the author is not answering 🙂

Thank you, It was very usefull Info. Was trying to get to the seatbelt assembly. You are awesome

Exactly what I needed to fix my brake light!

Excellent video, thanks!

Very detailed and simple thanks for the video just earned a new subscriber

thanks. got my 2016 Sienna last week.

Thank you kindly for your helpful content.

Couldn’t have done it without this. For the front door sill c over I assume it’s the same method as the sliding door sill. Thanks.

Great video helped me a lot. Thank you, sir!

I was so happy to find this video! Our rear seat belts had been torn and cut-off by hauling around sheets of aluminum in our 2005 Sienna van, and I wanted to replace them before we consider trading it in on a newer vehicle. I had downloaded the Toyota manual instructions, but this makes it much more understandable. I found 2 used seat belts in good condition at a www.autowrecking.com for under $80.00 including shipping. So hope to get them installed this week.

this has been very useful thank you so much

Thank you very much, it was very usefull video. You are awesome.

Thanks for this thorough video. I recently acquired a 2004 Sienna LE. and I am thinking of installing a sub since mine didnt come with one. I believe the XLE does come with the panel and subwoofer speaker and box, or the JBL ones. My question, are the LE pre wired for the subwoofer?

Thanks for creating video. My car got bumped at the left taillight. I installed new light but it is just slightly of alignment probably due to a dent just below that taillight. I suspect the dent is just enough to misalign taillight. Ct from SF,CA

Thanks, this video will help! I am assuming taking out the passenger side is very similar?

Damn it, I need to see what is behind the Passenger side rear panel. I want to install a shore power outlet, as I turned my Sienna into an RV. Thanks anyway.

Great instructions, thanks man!!

Thanks so much sir. Awesome video!

The panel you said you didn't need to remove is the one I need to remove to replace the rear quarter window (errant gold ball). Guess I'll just yank it and hope that's all it takes, I seem to break clips and plastic a lot. I've converted my Sienna to a beach bum mountain man mobile and so far at 315k plus miles it's running like a champ, second owner and I'm shooting for 500k miles. My secret ? Real old fashioned dinosaur oil every 3k. 🦕

I found this video because I am currently searching for rocker panels for my 05' sienna. Have ccx any ideas on where to purchase them? So far any sites I have found that says they have them seem pretty shady. I can fabricate something if I have to, time just isn't something I have a lot of, haha.

Thank you. Well done. Thanks a million.

Do you have a video on the upper trim for rear so I can get the vent window out. On a 2007

Very helpful, thank you!

Like a freaking boss! Thanks!!!

Is the opposite side any harder or the same? I've noticed on a lot of youtube videos, the easiest part is always shown, so just curious before I tackle it...

I have a dent in the rear quarter panel just under the light. Is it possible to access this area to tap out the depression? Your camera angle does not show whether I could get tools in there to push out the dent.

Hi. Howe to remuval plástic black of the bumper rear? Thanks for You time

Great video. Do you have instructions on how to remove the center (collapsible) tray on a 2007 Toyota Sienna?

Great job!

Awesome, thank you sooooo much

Great video thanks sir.

Very well done. My 07 seinna has no heat at the rear cabin. Any ideas??? The rear cabin controls funtion fin (level doors move and change fan spd) but zero temp change just cold air(winter here). I suspect heat control modual broke but i dont know where it is? Front heat/controls work fine. Any ideas???

thank you good Sir

I was watching this interesting video and I was wondering, if you have anything related to replacement of that side window seals on a 2006 Toyota Sienna?

Thank you so much!

Question: once off, inside the van down in the well behind the rear wheel, can you see fasteners for the trailer hitch? Installer put mine on and started the fasteners with an impact wrench, cross-threaded and seized one. In trying to remove the nut on the inside broke free (assume welded to frame) and is spinning. Need to fix somehow. Thanks!

Thank You
