You have to remove the bottom seat skin and foam to get at the bolt heads...

Turn the seat upside down and remove the hog rings that hold the seat cover flap that is attached to the seat spring from the rear. Then cut or untie the drawstring that is used to tighten the seat bottom cushion. Once the drawstring is loosened remove the hog rings that hold the ends of the seat bottom cushion to the center part of the cushion. Do not lose the little plastic rods the hog rings circle around. Once you get all the hog rings out you should be able to pull off the seat bottom cover followed by the foam. Then you can get to the bolts.
