swapping back seats ?
I have sport seats and the driver's outside seat bolsters is showing some wear, and I though it might be a good idea to swap the driver back seat with the passenger one.
Is it possible? Anyone has done that before? Any write up or pics available?
Can I just swap the entire seats? I rarely use the electric control button ...

Luc,
sport seats have manual backrests. If you do not have heaters, you could swap the backrests without even taking the seats out of the car.
Remove the hinge plates, you will find 2 15mm bolts on each side. You will also need to disconnect the cable for the backrest release button on each side. That's it.
The backrest adjustment mechanism remains with the base.
If you do have heaters, then you will need to undo the back flap of the seat portion to get the wire out once you have disconnected the heater. So that is better done with the seats out of the car.
