Konrad,

Get the Owner's Manual (OM)!

Every car owner should AT LEAST have an OM.

I have a '95 Nissan...in my OM, it shows HIDDEN car seat attachment
points in the rear seat area as well as how to access and "enable"
them. I suspect your OM would show the same information. I got mine
just recently from Nissan (a beand new OM for this '95 200SX SE, for
only $12 shipped), but they also can be found on EBAY. Maybe Honda
does the same for older cars.

Whatever, get the OM.

Good luck,

John D.
