all the hog rings are is little loops. they look like wire bent into little circles.

| Post subject: | removing/installing "hog rings" for s2k seat insta |
im putting s2k seats into my ek and i found a thread on h-t that says to remove the seat pan off the ek seat and put the pan onto the s2k seat this was the easiest way it seems to get all 4 holes lining up, so my question is how to remove the hog rings? they are these little rings that attach the seat to the pan in places? from what i understand from reading the post on h-t he took his seat apart, from looking at the seats i took out my passenger seat and was comparing it to my s2k seat bottom it looks like he did some steps i would not have to do, since we know they are the same from what ive seen it looks like i could just go in from the bottom removing the pans of each and swap them i dont see why you would have to take the entire seat apart, anyway what do u guys think, i was trying to do this last weekend but i had a funeral to go to so im going for this weekend now , just someone help me out with these hog rings? link to h-t diy http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=347548 |

well i dont think its going to be that bad, i just dont see what the exact procedure is to remove or install those "hog rings"? i think u use a certain kind of pliers, i know i could make it work but i dont want it to look like crap its really clean right now and i dont want the seats to look like a hack job even if it is the underside of them |

yeah someone told me to just use zip ties- im going to try bending the hog rings with pliers or try the zip ties, im going to take plenty of pics so ill post it when i get it finished swapping pans and putting the s2k seats in an EK i know its been done but maybe ill have some different pics others didnt so maybe the next person wont have the same questions i did |

yeah i got some ctr rears also, i decided to go with them even though they are not leather im going to see how it looks with the s2k fronts. just another interior question, did anyone recover the bolsters on the door panels? is it real hard to recover? |

yeah i got them, i just went ahead and picked them up they were for alot cheaper than anywhere else ive seen them so if i dont use them i can put them up for sale i just didnt want to let these slide by for a good price then decide i need them later but the real determining factor was that the integra or rsx or whatever doesnt really fit thatr well and i need black rear seats and i want good fitment so i went with these |
