What a great idea! I don't see why it couldn't be done. The parts catalog does not specify Left or Right for the seatback parts, including the cover, frame, etc. So they must be interchangeable. In fact, the only parts the spec R/L are the "control button" and "rosette" which are on both sides of each seat. So I assume that R/L designation refers to the left or right of the seat, not the car.

I'm going to do it on mine when I get the chance. The best part is that by swapping them, those same areas will not suffer the same wear and tear because they'll be in the center of the car!
