You can swap the seat bases easily. I think it is just 4 bolts.  

Changing the backrest is a little more work because you have to take the seat console apart due to the rod that is between the sides of the console.

Regarding Ignis Regaro seat, you might get some at jimnyparts.nl. This is where I got mine.

Thanks.  I had a look under the seat and saw the bolts, looks straight forward.  The foam has come out of the side of the seat and dropped on to the adjustment bar, I cleaned it up and put some silicone grease on it and that appears to have stopped the squeak, so I will wait to take the seats out when I have more time.

I also found that the rear door rubber wasn't holding the door in the correct place and now that it is adjusted and the seat sorted, it's like a new car as far as noise goes.

I did find some alternatives to the Recaro seats, see

Not sure I really want bucket seats, perhaps just for the driver, I can't see my missus liking them.
