Just because you had a mechanic there does not mean much.  

You need a 1/2"  deep socket and a 4" extention to do the deed after yo coat 
the bolt and nut with a break um lose/ anti- stick type of juice.  You may 
want to do this for about two to three days.  I have found that if I do not do 
this, I break the bolt ( or two ).

The bolts are really studs from the bottom of the seat frame.  There is two 
each on each out side of the seat assembly.  Under the drivers seat area is a 
red wire.  Take the clip appart before you try to re-move the seat.  This wire 
is above the floor, not below it.  On the passenger side between the seat and 
the floor is a down-ward pointing nut assembly.  It takes a 5/8" - 11/16 or 
like area sized wrench.  Remove this nut.  Then pull upward and move the bolt 
assembly/ seat torque bar away from the hole.  If you have separate seats then 
look for this anchor nut on the bottom right of the drivers seat also.  And on 
seperate seats the red wire will be there also.

Now back to under the car for the seat studs.
