MG MGB Technical - What hand are seats

The seats were out on the 66 roadster when I got it. How do I tell which seat is RH and LH? Also is there a good website for reupholstery? Thanks

if you turn the seat upside down the straight edge goes sill side

So.... whilst the subject is open, which side does the adjusting lever go on. My seats were also out when I got the car. This is a RHD car if it makes any difference.

chrome adjusting handles go to the inside (transmission tunnel}

Thanks S S. My question was badly worded. I am after the position of the seat rails and which side the forward/backward adjusting handle goes.

The fore and back handles also go on the sill side. If dismantled note that the foams should be handled, and again the straight side goes by the sills and the tapered by the tunnel, same as for the seat covers.

Thanks kindly Paul. I can get on with it now.
