I'm trying to remove the front passenger seat, but what type of screw is this?
I have nothing that seems to fit

I need to double check mine, but I am sure they are an internal torx fitting ?.
If so, they will look like this.
I will check and report back.

They might actually be double-hex type not torx.
As someone that's done quite a bit of work on VWs over the past, I ended up buying a full double-hex set.
Looking forward to the next disassembly from @jhunterwu

Just remembered to check the seat bolts on my car, busy day sorry.
I have found a bit that WILL fit the seat bolts but I do not have a fully set of them, only a few sizes.
In the first picture, I have placed the driver socket into the seat bolt.
The second picture is the same socket drive, left on the front seat for info.
It is a square 3/8"AF drive in the head of the socket.
The size used to fit the seat bolts, is a x8mm "T-Star" ( torx ) I do believe.
It is similar to the std torx male spline, but there appears to less gripping splines on the "T-Star" drive bits, as seen in my picture two.
Hope this answers the question posted.
