Lear Siegler Seats? Are these correct?

I have a 1985 IROC Z-28 that we traded a friend for. The car is absolutely beautiful both inside and out, and I love the interior. We actually got the car because we needed the aftermarket motor and trans and rear out of it, but the more I look at it, the more I'm realizing what incredible shape the rest of it's in. I have done some research on the seats that are in it, and it's obvious they *look* like the Lear Siegler's...the part that is throwing me off is that the front driver's seat doesn't look quite "right"... I thought there was supposed to be a difference between the driver and passenger seat, specifically at the bottom of the seat (about where your thigh would be) which I believe makes it a "conteur", and the fabric on mine has "camaro" running all the way down the back to the seat, whereas the other stop about 3/4 of the way down. So, I figured I'd be able to get some answers on here-- Any info would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! :-)

Short of a little bit of dirt which could easily be removed, and a tear on the driver's seat about 1/4 of an inch (not in the "camaro" portion, it's in the back side) the seats and panels are bordering on mint... I'd also love to know how to fix the tiny tear on the one. It's not really noticable, but I know it's there...

I thought something seemed a bit off, but I wasn't 100% sure if there were different versions or not. Oh well, lol

Re: Lear Siegler Seats? Are these correct?

So does it look like they just bought the correct fabric and put it onto a random seat? And does the passenger side/ panels look correct? I hate to admit I dont know a ton about the 80's models, we mainly deal with earlier models
