Default Swapping driver and passenger seats in a T/A

Is it possible to take the electronics and seat out of the passenger side of a T/A and swap it in place of the driver side seat. The reason I ask is the driver side in my car has the tear on the side of the seat. I thought I might be able to swap seats in the car because the passenger side looks brand new.

You should be able to take the seats apart and switch out the seat cushion bottom, but that is about it.

The switches/controls are on the wrong side, so you cant switch out the base, you cant switch out the seatback either because the loop for the seatbelt, release latch, etc. would all be on the wrong side.

Both seats are totally interchangeable once you take them all apart and reassemble the way you want them to be. I have done this before.

True the head rest pops off the top keeping the seat belt loop where it is.
