have you tried coating it in wd40 and then heating it up slowly with a heat gun and then trying to undo it, thats what i had to do, cant you just pop down to a local vauxhall garage and asking one of the mechanics to undo it for you quickly, me and a mate had to do that

Vaux would be the logical place to go if you aint got the tools yourself, or another car garage and ask them to fit the seats.
If its just 1 bolt you cant get out then ask vaux to turn it a little for you, so you can get it out yourself when you get home. Providing the others are tight then you should be fine.
