Swap 2005 V70 R front seats into 2001 V70 T5

Hi All,

The seats in my 2001 V70 t5 are in need of repair, just too many little rips.
I have located a pair of seats from a 2005 V70R.

I can't get to them to do any measurements, so thought I would turn to the forum.
Would these fit? I would prefer to be able to bolt them in and have everything go great, but I am realistic that there may be issues.

Thanks for any help that can be given.

You might have to swap the track but the seat itself should bolt up. Also you need to keep your old seat belt for the sips.

Pull up some pictures and do some comparing. Cross reference the part numbers of the seat and the seat covers.

As a last resort, it may be possible you can pull the covers, and maybe the cushions and move it over. The only item of concern is whether the air bags in the seats are an issue. I don't know if the vehicle has them, but if they do it is something that should be considered.
