The short answer is no. The Westy bench cushions are flat foam, same
thickness over their whole area. The passenger seat cushions are very
much thicker and wedge shaped. Even if you mounted them they would not
be flat when the bed was made. Make some plywood to attach to the
hinges. Then staple fabric over foam pads cut to fit the plywood.
