MJ bench seat differences

[MeanLemons]

On my 88 pioneer auto with the column shift. The bench seat is straight across, and on my 91 eliminator with the ax15. The bench seat have a notch in the middle (I suppose it's because to accodomate the mini console).

 

I'm swapping in the ax15 into the 88 and I don't plan on using the mini console, I plan to have the boot mounted directly on the floor, and from my eyeballing it doesn't look like I would need to swap the seats.

 

Is there a particular reason for the notch on the seats other than the mini console?

Thank you very much

I think the purpose of notch in seat was to provide more space for forward movement of the seat.  The small shift console, when my seat  is fully forward, protrudes about 3 - 3 1/2" into the notch.
