Thanks for the reply. Here's an update.

I left work a little early today and dropped the seats off. According to the write up I used for the seat heater installation, the part numbers for the seat foam are the same for both the driver and passenger seats. So I am assuming that the leather is too. It looked the same to me and to the upholsterer while we were discussing the work. I guess I'll know for sure when I pick them up on Saturday.

The only difference I can see is that the cut out for the seat motor control switches would be on different sides. While I was at the shop, the upholsterer removed the panels and there is a fairly large hole there. He is going to sew in some vinyl to cover it. The repair will be next to the center hump when it is installed, so it should not be visible.

I'm planning to ask $500 for the seats. I'll probably have the worn part of the bolster repaired before I list them for sale. I checked with Greyhound and it would be about $140 to ship them with insurance. So even if I had to ship them, someone could get a nice set of seats for around $600. I may try a local sale first through Craigslist to save the inconvenience of packing and shipping.
