What's the secret to accessing the driver seat anchor bolts?

I got a couple of the nuts off by lifting up the plastic covers but I feel like I'll break them if I try to access the others. Those covers have to come off but I'm not seeing how without breaking them. Help?
 
There is a black screw holding the covers on. Look close at them, get a flashlight.

I see the screw holes but the screws are missing. The wobble quite a bit. Not sure if they're just hung up on the studs? I guess I'll need to pry a little harder.
 
If you got the screw out, they should come off. They probably stuck alittle bit.

The rear ones are out after considerable prying. I'm thinking I must be going about this wrong though. Is the seat supposed to be removed from its rails before pulling the covers?
 
Is your car a 86? I just swapped my broken power seat track in my 86 with one from an 87 and the trim is a bit different. The 86 had 2 pins that held the covers that went over the nuts on the back and they were a pain to get out, the rest was just a few screws but you have to bend the pieces a bit to get them out.
