Default Wondering OEM Seat Switch?

Because my passenger seat has more cusion then the driver seat, is it possible to switch them if I just take the hardware and swith them? Or is there more then that or not even possible?

Thanks

I dont think that they can go from one side to the other. However, why not just switch the actuial seat coushins?

I dont think you can switch them from side to side because of all the parts. the arm rest would be on the wrong side, same with the tilt, and seat belt buckel, etc....

Sounds like a better idea. I'm gonna test both ways. But more then likely will go with yours. Thanks

*Edit*

Ok, the only problem with that is the actual seat-belt for the drive side would be one the wrong side. Also the seat-belt light won't be connected.

*Edit 2*

Now the question is how do you get the levers that able you to lean back and forth off?..

*Edit 3*

After 3 bandaids, 2 gatorades, and a list of expletives. I'm pretty sure you can't switch them. No. Actually you can. However, you need hands the size of infants and air tools. The problem was only taking one nut off, but then I noticed the whole tilt (LMFAO) is built into the upper part of the seat. So now that I feel like an idiot, I'm going to go vaccum. Now if only I had a Recaro seat then today would not have been a waste of time.

The only thing you may be able to switch is the padding. Have you tried that?

That's an idea. But I lack sewing/apholestry skills. So I'll just wait until I can afford a real seat, the cushion isn't horrible it's just getting a tad worn in.
