And another tip since you've got a Tintop.  No need for swivel seats!  Just turn 180 and slide back in on Passenger side.  Again...got this tip from this List.  Properly lubricated seat rails makes this a 1 minute job.

 John, I know you've got your answer already, but yes...swap left & right front seats without any issues at all.  I got this tip from this List.  I did it about 20 years ago....might be time for me to switch back again....maximize fabric durability.  Tip:  clean and grease sliding rails, with Vaseline....doesn't stain carpet.

 Can the passenger seat and driver seat be swapped? My driver seat is
showing some wear, but the passenger seat is never used and is in really
good shape. Can I swap them without much ado - changing hardware,etc?
