Winnie:
Before you make the swap, try out the later seats in a friend's car - you
might not want to do it. I have found the seats you mention to be much more
comfortable than the later models, as have several of my friends. Of course,
that is a very individual thing, and you may well prefer the seating of the
later ones, but you should try them before you swap.
If, after trying them, you still want to swap, I have a pair of frames (no
foam or upholstery) from a '75 that I would be glad to trade you for your '72
seat frames.
The seat frames themselves are different, but they all fit to the seat floor
rack the same. Swapping is just a "take out the old, put in the new"
proposition, involving only two bolts per seat.
