Yup, the fat side of the seat actually each corner folds a bit and you can get a screwdriver in there and there is one on each side. it's pretty simple.

Yeah the seat should be held down with 2 10mm bolts with a built in washer. Well at least mine is.

Lol im in the same boat as you! I dont know how the previous owner lost so many screws. Im in the same boat as you, my bolts dont have built in washers, where can i get another 10mm bolt? homedepot i guess?.... Anyways i got the seat off and everything was good to go, but where is the air filter located? under the gas tank?
