I'm reupholstering the seats this winter.  The big box from SS is due soon,
so I've been investigating taking things apart.

The side cover plates came off easy, and they're already stripped and
primed.  So the first difficult challenge is getting those large screws
out.   They won't come free with just standard screwdriver effort.  So what
have you guys done to get them out?  I've already had Liquid Wrench on them
for a few hours.

I was thinking of one of those impact tools that you hit with a hammer.
Any other ideas out there?

Stu
