Passenger seat cover on driver seat?

Postby Sirois » Sun Mar 24, 2024 7:13 pm

Hi everyone,

Would the passenger seat cover fit onto the driver seat?
Or are the trims a different shape?

On your late 2000 NB8B? Not sure from looking at the following NB8B vinyl/leather seat pic. Outside side bolster of upright looks slightly deeper & inside bottom of upright looks slightly different to outside:

Fabric & vinyl seats look a closer match until you look at the base, where it appears US LHD seat doesn't have the extra bit of material on the inside going under the seat rail:

Yes I noticed the bolsters look ever so slightly different, but wasn't sure whether this was from wear and tear differences, and whether perhaps the foam is different, but the fabric trim is the same.
