They are captive nuts so I would give them a good soaking in release oil before attempting to undo the bolts, if you decide to remove the spacers to reduce the height of the seats you have to cut the same of the bolts as to the length of the spacers

Actually only the 2 outboard bolts should have nuts and the 2 inner bolts bolt in to a plate which is part of the chassis. All you have to do is undo the bolt from the inside of the car.

Hope that helps

BTW it might help if you soaking those plates with WD40 and wire brush the crap of the exposed threads.
