Does anyone know if it's possible to switch the front seats? I have leather seats and the driver's side seat is much more worn out than the passenger side. If I could unbolt the seat cushions from the track and motors I could swap them. Is this ridiculus? Thanks.

I changed the front seat CUSHIONS around with no major problem. The only detail different between the drivers and passangers side cushions was a penny size hole that the pivot for the seat back goes through. The hole is only needed on the side of the cushion that faces the center of the vehicle. With the passangers seat cushion on the drivers side you can't see the now uneeded hole because it is covered by the seat back adjuster. A similar hole had to the added to the opposite side of the cushion.
 












Thanks Black Magic, I hadn't thought about just new foam for the old drivers seat. I found seats in the junk yard but none that match my color. Now all I have do do is find one with good foam!
