On the versions that were assembled at the Bertone plant...their seats will not fit in the older Fiat models ( without relocating/redrilling seat tracks ).
To swap the newer Bertone seat covers onto the older seat models do as you have DETAILED. Swap covers. Much easier than relocating tracks.

Thanks for the tip.
