There got to be a way do you have a photo of the seat?
Bolster clips might help
If you cant reach the nuts

I've also seen screws hidden in the folds between the sections of the coaming pad.

IF there are no joints like that and you have access to a button machine you can screw it on from the front using #6 flathead wood screws passed through a snap stud. Make up some #30 buttons on dura-snap rings and pop them onto the snap studs.There are also those cheezy plastic snap caps.

I like to use the accent colour for the buttons. Say I did it in light blue with a dark blue welt---I'd do dark blue buttons.

If you dont mind in investing in a system, Been considering stocking the components for this . Looks like it would be handy to have around.
