WD40 and brute force, I should think.   If that doesn't work (and I know 
that these things can rust solid very easily), you could always grind 
off the weld-nuts on the underside, and just lift the seat out.   I 
think a DPO did this with my car, as there are no weld-nuts left, and 
the seats are held down with bolts and ordinary nuts.
