When I stripped to a 2-seater, removed em by hand w/a 1/2" drive deep socket w/18" breaker bar handle. I remember them being pretty tight to break loose but not impossibly so... You'd expect em to be formidable enough to do their job I guess. Didn't use any liquid penetrant but you could try a shot of the stuff, might help.

I think the seat balt bolts use some sort of funky threaded hole so that it get tight as crap. Therefore penetrant might not help. A good breake bar should do the trick. Just take it easy so that you don't strip the bolt head...
