convertable leather in a coupe?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/E30-1991-BMW-325- ... dZViewItem

this appears to have the 'bucketed' rear leather seats in it, i thought these were exclusive to the convertable due to the roof mechanism at the sides?

these look much better than the standard leather seats, and was wondering if it is possible to fit them?

fronts will fit fine, rears will be too narrow for a coupe, i think they brackets and fitting are the same though so cab rear seats will fit into a coupe but you will have about a 2-3inch gap on each side of the seat.
