Default Passenger side power seat in driver side

Any reason why I couldn't swap my passenger side power seat into the driver side for a week or so? I appreciate that the power control buttons wont be accessable, but apart from that, any issues?

The reason I'm thinking of doing this is that I'm doing some leatherique restoration on the seats, and I'd like to do them one at a time, outside the car. I've got the passenger seat out of the car at the moment soaking in rejuvenator oil, and will be doing the whole leatherique process (reconditioning and redying), which will take a minimum of several days for each seat.

I was thinking it would be good to have the car drivable even while the driver's seat is out by swapping in the passenger seat temporarily -- that way, no down time.

Seat belt mounts? That's the only real problem I can see.

IIRC the inner and outer rails mount differently. The inner and outer rail holes are in different locations. I may be wrong.
