NO, convertible interiors have much narrower rear seats and that pattern is saloon specific.

I just had a full cabby retrim in black leather with one bolster repair. It cost me £560. They have done a pretty good job. Not anywhere near as good as a quality trimmer.... got some seats done for my mums celica turbo and they are beautiful but they did cost £1500. But for £560 + Cost of the old set of seats (£40) they are far far better than anything second hand I have ever seen and better than some more expensive retrims that I have seen on here.

£950 is barmy. You'd get a cab specific interior in decent enough condition for as little as a third of that

in general rear seats do not fit but you can get the fronts to fit in with a bit of work on the basis. All front seats have the mechanism to tip forward but you just have to install the pulleys. Its the rear seats you have the problem with.
