Tilt handles are in a slightly different place, and there's a removable 'stop' fitted, but otherwise the same.

Front seats fit in a 2 door saloon. Rears don't.

Also the convertibles don't recline as far as saloons due to the fact a convertibles narrower rear seat area.

The stop referred to above is on the runners.
