Default Saff- making passenger seat a drivers???

Hi guys, is it possible to switch a passenger seat with the winders on the left (if your sat in them) to a drivers on the right as a drivers?

If so how do I go about it and will it look original as a drivers? Ie no gaping holes

Cheers jim

This is the dodgy bit as you'll have to cut and weld if you want to swop sides properly.

Jimbo, why don't you just get a nakerd Drivers seat take the bolsters and foam and coverings off and swap it for the bolsters and foam/coverings from a mint passenger seat?
Would that work or am i missing something? Not had a decent look at a Recaro in a long while.
