Star wrench size

Hi guys,

would anyone happen the size star wrench needed to take the bolts out that lock the split rear seats in? I'm trying to remove those two plastic panels but I don't have any star wrenches.....so i'll have to go purchase one.. I just want to get the right one the first time

Thank you very much

Matt

If you are talking about the bolts on each side of the car that the rear seats latch on, it takes about a size T-45 torx bit to remove it.
