Nope - the rear bottom bench and the rear seat back are different - you can get them to fit with a bit of bodging though...

I just got mine re-trimmed to the saloon foam shape!

yes i did it myself. it takes a while but worth it imo and is simply a case of matching hole lol you will see what i mean. mine is held in place with lots and lots of tiny cable ties
