[QUOTE="Madmudder, post: 1324657, member: 59580"] No, that will not work at all. The seat pans are different shapes and sizes, in addition to different attachment mechanisms. The foam bottom will be shaped all wrong, so you can't transfer it between the seat pans. The covers will not even work as the passenger seat area is much longer on the 1st Gen and the drivers seat shorter and different shape. Sell the 1st Gen Russell for what you can get and use the money to buy a custom seat on 2nd Gen seat pans. +1 I inquired about the same idea with my Lamm seat from a Gen1 to Gen3, Seth said its your seat do with it as you like but I won't touch it & suggested I not attempt it. So as mentioned above I sold Gen 1 seat and used funds to have Gen3 seat built and it is as good as the Gen1 ever was. [/QUOTE]
