Other way around... There is no reason to install a seat in the vehicle for testing that is not going to be something that is possible for use later....

IN other words... why would they install a seat that they know that they will NOT put in the vehicle when the install of that item can affect the driver's feedback ?

As another data point.. Preproduction models of the 1M DID have the actual 1M seats in them.. with the correct color stitching..
