Default X300 removing front seat

I'm attempting to remove the front passenger seat from 1995 X300. I have found and removed the two large bolts securing the seat at the front and the seat now lifts a little at the front, but for the life of me when I turn my attention to behind the seat I see nothing which appears to be securing the seat at that end! All I can see are two circular (rivets?) each side of the seat which appear to secure the seat to the rail on which the seat moves. These are not nuts however as they are round with no edges to grip a socket spanner.
So, simple question please, does anyone know what secures the seat at the rear and where they are?
Thanks.

There is a large Torx bolt under those rivets. Move the seat to the fully forward position and you will see it (assuming you have removed the plastic trim around it).
