a few weeks ago Robert posted to the DML giving a list of where each of the 
body bolts are. but here they are again:

2 bolts - in the luggage compartment on either side sticking right up.
6 bolts - three on either side of the backbone hump in the passenger 
compartment. one of them is the seatbelt bolt, the other two are under the 
carpet in the same manner. wait, maybe there's only 4 bolts inside the 
car.... i forget.
2 bolts - that metal brace that goes into the frame thru the fibreglass in 
the engine compartment. on either side of the car, look down and you should 
see them. they are big and go straight up and down thru a big brace about the 
size of the exhaust pipes.
2 bolts - you have to remove the rear fascia to get to these.
2 bolts - ah.... these are hard to describe but they are on either side of 
the engine and they face INWARD, going from the outer side of the car towards 
the engine. i have never seen nor touched these bolts myself but they're in 
there somewhere. hopefully someone else can elaborate. find Robert's post.

there must only be 4 bolts inside because i think there's only 12 bolts total.
sorry it's a little sketchy, but you should now know which ones you've 
tightened and which you didn't know exist!
