immorality wrote:An update for you Adam. I managed to get some bolts to put the belt buckle on, so I was able to bolt the seats down and jump in. The seats are a little more awkward to get into with the big thigh bolster, but doable. I think that in time I will perfect the in/out procedure. From just trying it a couple of times, putting my left hand on the side sill makes it easier to get low and rotate my lower half into the seat. It also seems that it might be easier to tilt the wheel up when I get out. All that said, time will tell, ask me again in June.

There was one little bolt under the VVT oil control line on the rear head that I could barely reach with my ratcheting wrench, and then I could only move it one click at a time, so that took forever. Then, both of the VVT oil control bolts were tight as all hell. The rear one has reasonable access, but the front one is underneath the rear window and pointing straight backwards, so while I tried my best with a flare nut crows foot and extension I suppose it was almost inevitable that it would get rounded. Needless to say, many hours and much swearing later it was persuaded to leave the premises....
