It explained a lot. I am posting this image perhaps it will help some other folks;

While taking my seats today I find they are bolted in with 12mm Star Drive Bolts....I did not have a single star drive socket. I did have a small strip of the Kobalt Xtreme sockets....5 in a strip. I chose one that fit well and pulled the ratchet handle........Pop..Pop...Pop. I pulled the socket off and promptly put it back in the strip with it's 4 brothers and threw them in the trash. It rounded the points a little so after purchasing a proper 12mm Star Socket I had to drive it on to get it to hold. Kobalt Xtreme are worthless.

PS who ever posted about covering the door sills and surrounding areas with thick towels ....Thanks You...great advise and the seats are heavy and cumbersome and it would be very easy to scratch the car.
