You have to move the seat out until it is perilously close to crushing your
body. It helps to cut a two by four or two to such a length as to hold the
writhing seat monster in a position that lets you access the bolt head but
won't crush you. Or, you could use a really strong friend that you trust a
lot. Get at them from the back, as I remember.
