Default Thread locker for Seat Frame Bolts

Wondering if someone could tell me the type of thread locker to use on the bolts that secure the seat frame.
Bolts look like they have a white residue.

I can’t tell you specifically for those bolts, but blue (242) Loctite is a pretty good all round thread locker. The red is overkill for most applications.

Not needed / I'd just use them "as is" without any thread locker, sealant or otherwise.

On another car (Porsche), they recommend you replace any and all seat mount bolts or seat belt bolts with new whenever you remove them. I've not ever done that either.

Yeah most curious about what was used assume from factory that was white. Agree it’s a bit of an overkill you would feel any of the bolts backing off long before they fell out.
