All the panels and carpets are specifically shaped, so no. However, Metro seats can be mounted on subframes and used in a Minor.
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

Do you just mean the seats or the whole interior? My minor has metro seats front and back.
I didn't fit them though so I don't really know how easy it is...<br>Image<br>

You mount the front seats on specially made subframes from the likes of JLH or if you fancy having a go yourself, ones like these:

The rear seats are actually Minor seats with the Metro covers pulled over them.[/img]
