ohh this is a great one, ive taken the seats out of 5 corsas in my time and everyone the torque screws heads have rounded usually when there half off to, i recently stripped my full interior out to clean the carpet and it happened again i had to crawl under and cut the captive nuts off from under the car to get the seats out its a pain in the arse..

really? would never have thought it\'d be a hard job. the trains i work on are made of torx screws and bolts so im used to them. sounds stupid but you did have the right torx piece didnt you?.... guessing its just vauxhall using cheap screws made of cheese

yeah ive got all he right ools as i seem to do a lot of jobs on the corsas now that im a corsa owner myself but everytime its the same, ive just started taking the captive nuts of from under neath and using a suitable bolt later on
