Is this product hard to install? We are getting a Honda Odyssey and are wondering how hard it is to remove the seats to install this?

It was easy, the seats are a little heavy but I would not call it hard to move them and install this.

Not at all! I am a petite mom of three and I took the seats out myself and installed the mats myself. Best investment we ever made. The kids are forever spilling stuff and we are able to just wipe it right up:)

There is no real installation. You just remove the center seats (have the dealer show you how), lay the mats out, put seats back in, done!

We have a 2012 Honda Odyssey and it fits on the middle seat perfectly with some overlap on the front to protect the leather from rubbing shoes. Nothing to assemble, just set it on the seat and put the child seat on top. Really easy. Keeps the base of the car seat from making imprints on the leather. Does not slip or slide out of position.

Minor, it's not difficult. Just to slip the 3 backrests in and there are 2 side panels that slide into a bracket on both sides of the back rest. Real easy stuff!

It is easy to install. It is a large seat if you are rear facing...even for a SUV. However, it is comfortable and it didn't take my husband long to install the seat. I purchased a separate seat for my husbands car to avoid continuing to transfer. I noticed it didn't matter which car seat we purchase it still took some time to properly install.

It fit a Chevy Silverado 2013 seat, it pretty much streches for an overall good fit. I haven't seen an Odyssey in sometime so ck out a chevy dealership and look at the seat for size.

After you get the back fabric support on, there are two tiny holes in the metal that you're supposed to screw through the fabric and into. I did NOT do this for two reasons: I was worried about tearing the fabric and I wanted to be able to take that back piece off to wash if I needed to. I've used the seats for a year (probably 20x) without the screws.

I think it may matter (previous answer). I had the manual which made it easy. I would call the company who is selling the seat. They are very knowledgeable and can guide you. I found that even in a given year there are some variations that required some eativity to install the seat.

Sorry, I did not perform the installation; I had a plumber do it. He did not seem to have any trouble getting it installed. I guess practice make it look easy!

You just screw the screws right into the seat. No holes in seat assures that the fit will fit very snug when screwed into it. Not sure about the top side screws. Maybe the correct ones accidentally were used somewhere else on the item when assembling?? I don't know. I didn't have a issue with mine. Sorry :(

You will have to unscrew the seat to put the back on. Because it is boxed with the back not on it. Once we figured that out it was not so hard and the directions don't tell you that.

There were no instructions in my box so it took longer than it should have. I have a 2006 Odyssey LX. First off the rails for front and back are different lengths. Look for a label on the rail that says "Front", the other rail is for the back. 1. Organize the screws and washers since they are all in the same bag. 2. Remove the back rail cap by inserting a small screw driver in the clip hole and work the cap to the rear of the van. I used a buck knife to pry between the cap and rail to get it sliding back. You have to use the rear cap because the front doesn't allow the cross rail inserts to be slid into the mounting rail. Put this on after the cross rails are installed in case 3. Slide in the cross rail inserts and position them at the desired location. 4. Put the front rail on first. The cross rail inserts are made with very soft metal, if it gets cross threaded you have to remove the cross tab inserts and run the screw from the bottom to fix the threads. It took me a couple of hours because I spent a lot of time figuring out. This link is for a 2003 (http://www.handa-accessories.com/odyssey/odycrossbars.pdf) , and shows the front cap removal. The 2006 is definitely the rear cover. I also had real problems with cross threading, but I worked through it. It is very important to not force anything on this installation.

You can, but it's not a quick detach. In order to remove: Take off driver's seat, remove the two mounting bolts, remove backrest, replace the two bolts, replace driver's seat. Takes about 2-5 minutes.

I had to get on line and search for the black screw covers, Search several different offers as some are extremely expensive. As far as the toilet seat installation, it was just a basic installation for me. If you can't get it installed contact the manufacturer as they will send you a break-down and simpler directions. Good luck.

It was simple to install, but to stay in place. It is not easy enough to change out really often. The stiffness of the seatbelt and folding it to fit into the slots is what keeps me from saying it is easy. The snap on plastic ones that I tried constantly came undone and were worthless to me. I am the primary driver of my car and there is seldom a need to adjust it. I hope this helps you

I didn't use the installation instructions because they didn't work for me. I took the top straps and threaded them under the head rests and then fastened them and the bottom straps are supposed to be threaded around the seats. Didn't work for me so I tried to thread them around the seat belts but they pulled the seat belts too tight so I am still trying to figure out how to fasten them. Tried and tried to fold it back up but I couldn't do it even with the instructions so I just leave the barrier up in my car. It isn't in the way and adds 2 extra storage places. It's worked out very well for me since my dog can't go over it and she is finally staying in the back seat! I didn't use the installation instructions because they didn't work for me.

My son-in-law replaced mine for me. He says it is not easy as you have to hold down the seat cushion while unscrewing the screws. He recommends using an off set screw driver or short handled one. Also there is a video on U-tube that shows how to do it. Good luck!

Please do NIT remove permanent seat cover. You should remove any add on cover. This product will look fantastic in your truck.
