I've read several threads in which people mention removing their seats for detailing purposes, so my question is:
How difficult is it to remove the seats in the S2K? Is there anything I should watch out for?
Also, has anyone ever removed their seats in another Honda (i.e., Prelude, Accord, Civic)? Is it the same process?
Recently, I got some water in the passenger side foot well of my Prelude. . . I was able to soak up most of the water with towels, but I still need to remove the seat (to clean the carpets) to prevent mold/mildew.
Thanks.

Both seats are held in with 4 bolts each. You may have to remove a small plastic cover to find the bolts, but the S2000 bolts are all exposed. The only precaution (for the S2000) is that the driver seat has a wire harness (seat belt indicator) under the seat that has to be unplugged before you lift it out. It takes about 5 minutes to remove one.

So simple with the top down. The seats are really light too, so as long as your careful, you can do it yourself.
I have done this more than once, without any difficulties.
Do yourself a favor a get some seat locks from Kodokan. That way it won't be so easy for a thief to remove your seats. After you've done it you'll understand how quick and easy it is for them too!!!

there is an electrical snap connector under the drivers side - be sure to disconnect properly and to not just pull to break that wire...I believe its the seat belt sensor power...
Also when removing seat - although quit simple - be sure that the car is parked & not moving as vehicle in motion can cause other difficulties when removing seats.
