Title: Coupe FL Front Seat Upholstery Interchangeability L/R Post by: capriblu on February 10, 2021, 03:09:46 PM The interior of my 2nd series F/L coupe is pretty good apart from general signs of wear on drivers (R/H) seat pad.
Whilst the L/H v R/H front seats are physically different are the upholstered parts i.e. seat pads and backs interchangeable? In other words if I find a matching material L/H front seat can I easily swap the material pads to replace those on a R/H seat frame?

From what i've seen on both 1980 and 84 HPE's, you should be fine with that. As far as I can tell, only the tilt/release mechanism and the fore/aft runners are handed. And, generally, a L/H seat is likely to have less wear, but looks like you thought of that already.

Yes just wanting to put the upholstered base and maybe back from a L/H passenger frame onto R/H driver side frame. Should be doable I think. Thanks, Andrew |
