Just my 2 cents but if you can't figure out how to remove the back seats you probably shouldn't be installing a roll cage. Take it to someone with experience. Good luck

I just removed the backseats in my Type R today.

I actually followed these two videos from this guy (he did it on a non CTR, but it is the same thing on a CTR:

2016+ Honda Civic Hatchback "How to remove the lower rear seat"


2016+ Honda Civic Hatchback "How to remove the upper rear backseats"

I won't be installing my Roll Bar (whenever Studio RSR decides to send it to me) myself, but wanted to take the back seats out to make things easier for my shop. The hardest part of removing the backseats was getting the 10mm bolt on the lower, but that is just because I had a tough time seeing it at first.

front seat and reat seat are pretty simple, just remove bolts and all plugs. Roll cage you will need to either drill holes or weld to the car.

Drilling holes for a roll bar is a one-way door. Once you drill the floor, you cannot re-drill close by (to re-adjust or install another roll bar) without compromising floor support and its ability to hold up the bar in a rollover.

I'm pretty sure there are bolt on options for the FK8

if you need to reuse the stock bolt location you will need to becareful, some location is not suitable to support loads. For what I see, most strong will be welded, then custome drill holes then reuse stock bolts location.
