Rover 200 & 400 Owners Club

Yes i've fitted them on the right sides! Catch for levering seats facing outwards, the adjusters are in the centre though. The old seats i had in there (from a later coupe) had the adjusters on the 'outside', but the original seats i replaced last year had them on the inside (as do the new set)

Not all cabbys had armrests, it seems the early cabby did'nt. My current one (93) and my ex 216 (j reg) did not have the armrest. I wonder if it was a facelift addition for the cabriolets?

It's a pity you have tilters, as the back rests are swappable from side to side, but doing that would then put your release handle on the inner side. It's one bonus of 4/5 doors!

You should however be able to swap the leather and fabric covers over between the backrests so you have the leather covers on the coupe seats to put the handle on the outside, if you wanted to keep the armrest and not have to struggle with the adjuster on the inner side.

Just need to get round to sorting my electric windows out before i can fit the front cards. Oh and find some spare time to swap it all over.
