Default 86 Turbo hubs/spindles on late 85.5 944 NA..would they fit?

I am trying to keep the offset the same but upgrade the brake to the turbo ones...how hard is to adapt the 86 Turbo spindles/hubs on my late 85.5 944 NA?

Also would a late interior (rear seat) will fit on an early car?

Thanks!

The 86 Turbo spindles are a direct bolt-on, provided you also source the strut assemblies from the same 86 Turbo (or later Turbo) or any post-86 N/A car (87-89). The spindles will not work with 86 and older 944 N/A struts.
