Does it just have the usual tear on the outside top? An upholstery shop could sew it up, I was able to get it done to mine.

I think they would be different. The inside would be straight cut, and the outside would has a different pattern for the seat tilt.

I switched my 1995 Ram 2500,The floor brackets stay where they were, unbolt the seatbottom off the frame,most of the bolts will match, One corner I used a small c clamp to keep it together.The seat belts didnot have to be changed. My passenger side was and still is like new,the bottom foam on the driver side was soft so I replaced with a bottom foam from a passenger bottom from a junk yard. It was worth the extra effort to use my whole passenger seat,the back was nice&firm,I had the cloth fixed on the driver seat& the better bottom foam,put it on the passenger side and is comfortable as well. Most of the time it has my son's car seat in it anyway. Hope this helps,JOHN
