So far as I have ever been able to tell, the only significant difference
is that the passenger seat is the one that is hinged to tip forward. I
actually had them reversed for many years on my '3. I did this because
(prior to rebuilding the seats) I did not care for the position of the
seat back and found the passenger seat was somewhat adjustable to a more
upright position by adding some shims to the little plates the seat back
rest on.
If originality is not paramount it would seem advantageous to have them
both hinged.
