Default Swap leather seat covering from 850 to S70

Quick one ,
Will 850 seat covers fit an s70? Have a chance to strip leather covers from an 850. Drivers seat is split at bolster which offends me every time I get in...

Thank you in advance

If from an 854 to S70 then no issues.
If from an 855 to S70 then rear bench seats won't be compatible. as shape different.

However if going from 855 to V70 phase 1 then no issues with rear seats.

just ensure to keep the pig tail clips to reinstall and watch the wire rods glue to the sponge.

I've a section in my AWD build thread on how it's done.

For a minute there I imagined just the split held together with zip ties!. Second reading cleared it up.😬
