Talking Seat Swap?
Without laughing, is it possible to switch the front driver seat in a 99TL for the front passenger seat? My passenger seat is like new and would be far more comfortable as I drive a lot. Other than the side auto controls being hard to reach, are there any other big problems that would prevent this?

The whole seat, it is clearly 'No'.

But I am wondering if the seat cushion alone can be swapped.

I just checked my 'Owner Link' on the Acura website and it said "Driver's and front passenger's air bag" so I am assuming no side airbag. Answer still no?

99s didnt have them and Still a No. buy a new seat or find a good condition used one. Or you could replace the lower cushion.
