This would not work. There is just not enough room to get a tool down there where it needs to be if the seat is in the way.

I was afraid of that. I feel for you for sure. Let us know the final outcome please.

no that wouldn’t work either as not only is the seat over the bolt but the top rail of the seat bracket is covering the bolt. What makes it worse what adds to the problem is the parallel angle of the wall behind the seat is too steep to use any tool that I have tried. The flex head wrench has gotten the closest. So this issue has been fixed but it requires going thru the front of the seat, removing the module attached to the bottom of the seat, turning it around and “jump starting” it with a 12 bolt source and using the seat switch to move the seat forward. We are required and working again.
