Hi,
My 480T has been leaking a little over winter. I am in the process of stripping the interior out so that I can clean it / dry it.
Does any one happen to know what 'bit' is required to get the front seat bolts out??
Cheers
seat mounting torque bit?

be very careful, if you damage the bolt head, you will have a very hard time to get out the bolt. use wd-40 (or something similar to that) before you start.

I have found that there are different types of T50(i think). Both of mine were from halfords. Some have a chamfered / rounded top to them which really makes the difference between struggling and rounding the heads, or them coming out easily. You will probably need a breaker bar.
Make sure you get a nice sharp torx bit, or grind one so it is flat on the top.
Thanks,

Re: seat mounting torque bit?
Rich if you damage any of the bolts don't worry. Pop round for a nice cup of tea and a replacement! If you find that anything is too far gone to put back let me know and I can help you with everything except a carpet (I just threw one out too!!)
