i know there was a thread on doing this but i cant find it anywhere idk why so im making a new thread who has done it how did they do it and any problems pics would be appreciated or link to the old thread and delete this one lol thanks

 

btw this is for the gd

 

check the PW thead lol

 

I've done it, just put them back in the other day. Definately should have taken some pictures, but it is extremely easy. Just some bolts.

 

Anybody who's done it:

Have you weighed the seats to see how much you've freed up?

 

Appearently they're around 30kg.

 

That converts to about 66 lbs, not bad actually. Also gives me an excue to not drive anymore than one other person around.

 

exactly its all good stuff lose weight so its faster better mpg dont have to give rides anymore more storage space i love it haha

 

The thing is too is that if I absolutely HAVE to put them back in, it's not hard and doesn't take long.

 

yeah it is a sick plus

 

in for pics!

 

The only downside I find is that it doesn't cover your whole boot / trunk space, so if you park in dodgy areas and have a lot of valuables in the back, it is a little worrying.

 

yea, 4 bolts and they're out.
lol, don't expect to not be giving rides to more than 1 person...it turns into everyone just chillin in the back where the seats should be...figured it's better to keep em in lol.

 

they are gone lol

 

piccssssss!

 

The only problem with this is the fact that the two outer-most bolts are not shielded from the outside elements on the underside of the car; I had been taking my rear seats out on occasion whenever i needed to maintain better gas mileage, but the two outside bolts and their holes in the car's body have started to rust rather badly... No idea how to fix/prevent this...

 

I'd love to see pictures of this if you can shoot any.

 

Could you reinstall only the bolt? Or another bolt that is a bit shorter?

 

^why would it matter did you lose them?

 

FITFOLLY: I'll take pics tomorrow... I just removed both rear seats and nearly all my interior body panels because I have to re-seal the plastic rain seals on each door so I don't have a damned lake on the floor of my rear seats every time it rains.

Daleb: I could get another bolt, I suppose, but it's more the fact that Honda should have guarded the bolts somehow. Same goes for the rear seat-belt anchor bolts, they go right through the body into the rear wheel-wells... I'm waiting to see rust build up on them, too.

FLFIT239: Because I usually leave the rear seats installed? I mean, I'm all for lighter weight, better gas mileage, better acceleration... but it sucks if I need to drive more than ONE other person somewhere. prime example; sometimes I arrive late at my friends' place and I'm the only one not drunk or high yet, thus I'm the only person who can drive people somewhere... kinda sucks when you only have a seat for 1 passenger... Besides, I don't have the room to store my rear seats inside anywhere; too much hassle.
