Actually no I havn't done it before, but I'm good with directions. It seems easy from what I've heard.

My wife, the owner of the S is 5'0". She just recline the seat a little less. It seems to be comfortable without a pillow (which she used to use on the accord)

Hey, I see that you live in Diamond Bar . . . I do, too

You didn't get your car from DB Honda, did you? Worst dealer ever . . .

no, i didn't get it at diamond bar... they were my 2nd choice but only because they're like a mile away. but i just got it from a place where i knew the salesperson personally. why is diamond bar the worse dealer?

hey flying pig, is your wife able to clutch down all the way without the left side of the body moving down? the height thing isn't bothering me as much except when i'm driving in the city because i'll just adjust my body to be more comfortable. how about the airbag situation? the manual says it should be at least 10 inches, but i think there's a lot less space between myself and the steering wheel. this is my daily driver so i need to really consider the safety issue

i actually found wearing platform shoes to be more comfortable. at first i thought it didn't help, but when i wore shoes without height, there was a considerable difference... but still, you "feel" it less...

i'm totally considering adjusting the seat, but when i asked the dealership about it, #1, they wouldn't do it and #2 they wouldn't because they said it was unsafe... not something the manufacturer would recommend so i don't know!

traynspotting, you probably live 5 min away from me! (I live in walnut) I pass through diamond bar every now and then, so if you happen to see a black s2k with no driver, it might be me, cause I'm too short!
