different back seats

i was wondering if the rear seats are differernt for the convertibles. reason i ask is that the lever that holds the back of the seat doesnt lock onto the stricker bolt. its not even close to making it. i was just curious cause the guy i got it from just had the seat sitting back there and i just had them recovered. anyone know if there different or am i doing something wrong

They are identical. I've swapped interiors to and from coupes/convertibles with no problems. Sometimes though, the striker did not line up completely with the catch.
