So i came here to ask my friends at the forum;My cars an 80 Spit,are the seats switch/interchangable?aside from the recliner levers shouldn't they be?I would like to spread they wear on them.Their could be a small problem of room at the center console but i think they would just bolt in right? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grouphug.gifAnybody out their done this trick.Both seats are exactly the same that i can see. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/iagree.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I'm really not sure on the late Spitfires. It's possible that the recliner levers might foul the driveshaft tunnel if facing inboard. I do know that some of the earlier seats, notably the late Mk3 seats, were very much "handed" to the point where they actually curved inward somewhat. Seems to me that later seats aren't like that, though.
