Torque for the bolts that hold down the seat?

I am just finishing putting my seats back in my car and am wondering what is the proper amount of force that the bolts should be torqued to? Thanks.

Just basically hand tight. Its not really critical about how much torque to apply because the worst thing that could happen is that they could get a little loose and you would feel it long before they would come off completely. You wont have any problems. Out of the about 200 seats I have taken out, I have never torqued one and never had one come loose.

no torque needed, just tight in down hand torque, but don't over do it or you going to strip it.
