I took the 3rd seat and moved it to the back - it is removable and fits under queen bed.

Took the mobile cabinet between the single beds, cut it down, and moved it to where the third seat was.

Added two Lagun Tables - front and rear.

Now you have a nice "chair" with back support in the back with a table and a nice rotating captains chair with table in front.

Much nicer arrangement if there are two people sharing the van.

ADDED BONUS - now the side door is completely unobstructed for entrance and exit!

Unconventional but efficient, and reversible if you or a future owner ever decide you want the king bed back.
 
The beauty is that you can still have the king bed too. The seat is not permanently mounted in the back (but has a snug fit and velcro hold downs) so that it is easily taken down in two parts and stored in the aisle just like the mobile cabinet was. Now you add the center support for the king bed just as before.

I did not intend for the seat in the rear to be used during transport - only for camping and rest stops.
 
Took the mobile cabinet between the single beds, cut it down, and moved it to where the third seat was? How was it cut down?
 
The width and height of the cabinet was fine. The length of the body and the drawers was too long and stuck out into the aisle - so I removed the drawers and cut the cabinet to the desired length on a table saw. Then cut the drawers to the proper length on the table saw as well. I Removed the drawer backs from the cut ends and reattached them to the now shorter drawers. Screwed the cabinet to the floor and added a Lagun table mount which works perfectly for the passenger swivel captains chair.
