In a '99 Aurora, are the front seats interchangeable from side to side? Can the drivers seat be flipped with the passenger seat? Will the air bladder compressor or air lines prevent this? Thoughts? Thanks. Wade |

If I remember right they should be able to be flipped. I'm fairly certain nelson480 had a passenger seat on the driver's side on his old '99. The only thing I can think of is there's felt sewn on to the seat for the lower belt buckle that would be on the wrong side. The compressor is bolted to the lower frame I think, which wouldn't be an issue if you just remove the seat from the seat bracket with four bolts rather than removing the whole assembly. |

Unbolt the seat seperate from the fram and they are inter swappable. I put a passenger seat on my dr side because of wear issue obviously. You have to get custom with the air lines but i didnt bother as i didnt use them |

aar1 - exact question I had also - did you try the swap ? difficult ?
95% of my 130K on 97 Autobahn done with only driver - rode somewhere recently in passenger seat and noticeably more firm so thinking this is good project
