Adjusting Koni's is a PIA

To adjust them requires removing the front strut brace and the rear seats. I think I can remove the brace myself but the rear seats I don't want to attempt. Is it possible to drill some sort of hole in the back so I can easily access them for adjustment ?

rear seats arent that hard....take about 10 minutes once you get used to it, you'll also want to remove the C pillars and slightly lift the rear deck to properly get the adjustment knob on and turn it accurately. I do this every once in awhile, doesn't take more than 30 min from start to finish for everything.

Get a new strut brace with the holes cut out so it's easier to access. Rv6 makes a great one.

For the rear, you can cut a small access flap in the rear deck cover but it won't look good. You can buy these little extensions for the tein shocks but I have no clue if they work with the konis.
