Default mk5 seats into a mk7

had someone buy my seats off ebay, they where to put into his van i only saw the back so didn't clock it was a mk7, now he seemed a friendly enough bloke i believe he's just made a genuine mistake is there any way he can fit his old frames to the seats or a way of fitting them into his car i reckon i'll be a good samaritan and take them back as i have another buyer to sell them straight on to.

any advice would be greatly appreciated

As said, they just stuck a digital odometer on there for the Finesse/Flight run out models after the Focus was released from T-Reg onwards. Hardly a "facelift"!
