So screw you, little bolts! I replaced them with leftover 8mm axle studs (what the third member uses). I installed the long side in so I only have the short end sticking out. My junkyard pile had some fancy flanged acorn nuts which work nice here. Now removing/installing the rear seats takes about 20 seconds.

I think Steve at Sonoran Steel makes some wing nut type things to also remedy this issue. I've not tried them, but they seems like a good idea that would be easy to make with a welder.
