Have any of you guys ever swapped the driver's seat with the passenger seat? I know the recliner lever will be tight up against the center console but other than that I figure it should work after the tracks are also switched. My driver's seat foam is so much worse than the passenger seat simply because it gets sat on more often. OR - has anyone ever put seats in their RX-7 from another brand vehicle? There are so many seats available on eBay but very few good RX-7 ones available. If you have, what vehicle year and model did then come from? Thanks!

 

No, it does not work.

you can swap the foam, but the metal frames are not swapable

 

Are the frames bent at a different angle? I figured I could just swap the tracks from one to the other.

 

BTW - does anyone know if new foam is available?

 

Frames are entirly different as well as the tracks are specific for the location.

Foam is available at most upholstry shops

 

Maybe you could just do a right hand drive swap?

 

yeah that would be simpler

if it does end up working. . . PM me, because my driver side bolstering is dead

 

go to the junkyard if you really can't afford one and then clean it really REALLY well......

 

^ or just use the foam from the junkyard seat!

 

even cheaper!!

 

I think the right hand drive conversion is the obvious answer...
