Hmm... maybe I'll have to do this mod just to have an excuse for removing that overweight plastic molding from my car.
My guess is cutting costs. I don't know this for sure, but for models in countries with the steering wheel on the opposite side, I'd bet that the seats are swapped (levers on the outside) just with different plastic. This way it only costs Honda the money for the plastic between the different models.
