Default Torque Specs????

You probably never heard this one before but does anyone know the torque spec for the seat bolts? My seats are out and when they go back in I don't want to over torque the nuts on the studs and possibly break them off. Not sure what the studs are into- chassis, sub floor, other?
Thanks!
Jim

All specs are contained in the factory service manual for your car.
