Hi Ken,

This is a little late but...

Actually there is a subtle difference in these seats.
The backrests (squabs) for the later model cars are a
little bit wider at the bottom of the outboard side.
(The area around where the seat recline control is).

All of the replacement seat foams I have seen are the
narrow type, and would fit inside either covers, although
the latter covers are a little "baggy" looking when used with
these foams.

LBCing U,
Bob
