The engine has no relevance, it's the amount of doors you need to concern yourself with. 4-door rear bench differs slightly but will still fit a coupe and vice-versa.

Upright part of the rear seat is the same on all saloons,the base differs between 2/4 doors.

Cabbies and tourings are completely different,of course.

And if you want to mount rear headrests later, all the backrests have the mounting points in them, you just need the plates the headrests slip into. The front headrests will fit the rear seat.
