The question was asked some time ago but no one had a good solution, so I
will ask again.
Does any one have a way to remove the tunnel covers without removing the
front seats?

The only way I can think of without modifying the covers would be to leave
out the screws that can't be reached by sliding the seat to it's extreme
forward and aft position. The modifying way would be to rivet on a piece of
angle to the top of the tunnel side walls and screw the tunnel cover on in
that area from the top instead of the sides. This would probably be more
structurally sound than the first option, but also a lot more work. I don't
know the structural effect of the tunnel covers, so leaving out the screws
would certainly be easiest if it isn't a structural part (I know a lot of
people are leaving the tunnel covers off at least for first flight and some
for the whole fly-off period.
That's all just shooting from the hip, so I hope it helps.

I haven't thought much about this but a thought
occurred to me. Could you add a strip of aluminum the
thickness of the cover to the side vertical and then
attach a strip of piano hinge in the area of the seat?
You would then be able to remove the available
screws, pull the piano hinge wire, remove the fuel
lever and it could be removed.
