they come out together as a unit with the sliders they are on
slide seat all way forward remove rear hex nuts , slide all the way back remove front hex nuts , 8 per seat in total.
sometimes can be tricky as seat may not slide forwards or back enough to reveal the nuts

Or you could just keep sliding the seats forward with the seat back slightly reclined.

Ensure that the runners are clear of debris and lightly lubed, (use graphite), and they should slide out.

If you do remove the runners don’t lose the bolts as the heads are half height as not to catch on the seat.
