If you have rear seat warmers, can't see this happening unless they include a new part that has both heat warmer controls and usb port. Current installation diagram has usb going where the controllers would be.
The USB ports would go below the seat warmers towards the bottom.
Maaaaan, I'm all over that interior!Best angle I could get with all the interiors. I also have the Civic lighting (door sill) that's not in the pic. Big thanks to CosmicTouring though for finding out about them and taking the plunge first in getting them installed.
I have just checked out the instruction from College Hill, I think it is totally do-able as long as there is enough space to fit the USB ports module.

What they do to the Sedan console back cover is just drilling holes and cut out a big chunk from the cover, with the template provided, which means there's probably not even any markings on the back of that cover...
If we use the same template somewhere else (say underneath my seat warmer buttons), cut out the same shape, I'm sure the USB ports would still fit perfectly, though this way the ports will be closer to the floor.
The PDF can probably tell a better story than I do

Yes, that's true from a dealership stand point, but for those who really wants to have that I think relocating the ports are feasible as I show in this picture:
It's a tad disappointing but I have a 6-foot USB cable in my center console for my rear passengers so it's not a huge deal.

After all it's "designed" for the 19 Sedans only, dealers have every reasons to say it's not going to work with Hatchbacks Coupes and Pre 19 Sedans,
But technically it's just running wire and cut a piece off so that the USB port module can be powered up and mounted, so it will technically work as long as you have a spot to use.
Not that I'm in to this project though, that module imo isn't that good looking, taking all that space to have a big cover, looks like the ports are not taking even half of the space inside the cover... And plus... I don't even have much passengers ride with me to use that

You would have to replace your rearview mirror (the buttons for homelink are now found on it) so it would be interesting to see if you can install it without interfering with the Honda Sensing unit.
Yeah. I'm going to call my dealer and see if that's an option. I'm pretty sure they just made a modification to the mirror and not the whole camera assembly. But I could be wrong. I'll let you know what I find.
