Does anyone know if I can swap the fabric from the drivers seat to the passengers as I have found some cheap 180 seats but unfortunately the drivers seat has 3 holes in it :/ and I was thinking of getting them cheap and just swapping the covers over

Depends on the skill of the person doing the repair.

Ive had interior trim repaired before many years ago & you couldnt tell it had been done Cool

Ive also seen some poor / noticable trim repairs over the years.

If your willing to pay a bit of cash to get them redone then why not, they will look good when they are sorted! I may have just put a bid on the ebay ones...

You might want to look again because there's a set on eBay that match your decription down to the T.

I'd buy them just to have completely custom retrimmed.

But good luck with retrimming using the original material because the top cover cost more than a mint GTi180 interior costs and it's not easy to swap over.

200 quid for a GTi180 interior with 3 holes in the drivers seat isn't cheap.

Getting seats re-upholstered costs in the region of £600.
