I found this while looking for a guide on replacing the subwoofer foam that I'm going to tackle this weekend on my SC430. Should give you an idea:

I recently had my front seats apart and yes, you have to remove them. It’s very simple to do as it’s only 4 bolts and a couple cables.

I was able to replace the front seat, back panel screws without removing the front seats.
I moved the seat up and forward, then used a mirror, light and #2 screw driver.

I think #10 x 5/8 should work.
