Yes, Todd, they should slip right on, The only hang-up is if he has armrests
on his doors such as n Westies. Since the seats have armrests already, the
ones on the door have to come off. The other issue is the seat bottom
thickness. Westy seats are thinner so they can accommodate the seat swivels.
Ultimately, they all share the same track and are essentially
interchangeable.
