Default seat swap

The driver side seat bolster is showing some wear. I am thinking about swapping it with passenger side seat. Driver side is power,passenger side is not.Will they change out ok? Thought i might be able to fix rocking seat while i am doing the swap.thanks

If you are talking about the side bolsters on the back then no because the inner upright bolster on both seats is covered in a velour type fabric that allows it to slide easy against the console.

If you swap them then that velour will be showing when you open the door.
