RSX seat cutting

For those of you who have recently asked me where to cut the seats here are some pics on how I cut both back parts of the seat. Both sides were cut the exact same. I am sorry I do not have a pic from before I started cutting. but if you have the seats and look at my pics it wouldnt be hard to figure out.
I used a large cutting wheel to cut it. A dremmel tool will work it will just take longer and you will go through several cutting discs. All you are cutting off is the latch that would lock the seat into place( if it were in an rsx). Oh yeah, do not cut the seats with the leather still attached. I think it is self explanitory but I figured I would include that. If you have any questions let me know.



FINISHED PRODUCT

^the outward sides of each seat is where they were cut

Re: RSX seat cutting

there is a bar that goes up along the outside of the seat...if you take the leather/cloth of the seat you will know what im talking about...if you cut along the bar...the seats will be a very snug fit

Re: RSX seat cutting

nice, looks just like my car now . you might also want to put the middle seat belt behind the seat since that one is useless now...

Re: RSX seat cutting

nevermind about the cutting question, just re-read the first post, but is the bottom all foam?
