Swapping Leather Seat Bases
« on: January 29, 2011, 08:12:57 PM »
Is it possible to swap the seat bases over?  They look pretty symmetrical.  Anyone done it?
My passenger side is as new, with no stretching, but my driver's side has seen 20K+ worth of sitting and is looking stretched.  It would be good to swap them over the balance them out.

This has been asked before but never really got an answer by the looks of it...

Would you really want to tho, you can't really see the drivers because your sitting on it. But for the passengers you will see that all the time if you swap them  :thumbd:

Not a very helpfull post but something to think about  ???

Get a fat friend to ride shotgun for a few weeks. That will balance things out.
