My Activa has had slightly ripped rear seats since i bought it, and its a phase 2, V reg.
There is a N reg going for scrap parts on ebay, can somebody confirm the seats will be identical in there fittings a sizes before i buy them?
Also are they a simple swap?

Yes you can easily swap rear seats from a MK1 to a MK2. You must however obtain the inertia reel lap belt (a static lap belt is in the MK2) and the two lower seatbelts as these are shorter in the MK1 as they live in cutouts in the seat bases rather than clipping onto stowage clips in the MK2 when not in use.
The seats themselves are easy to swap. the bases are held on by four nuts each and the backs similarly although keeping them lined up to get the bolts in is really a two-handed job. The two backs have joining pins on the hinges and it is important to put one in first before the other. I think the longer of the two goes in first but it may be the other way around.
Note that Estate rear seats are very different to hatchback rear seats and are not a direct swap although it can be done.
The above is based on experience of swapping MK2 seats into a MK1.
