In 56 the cribbean featured flippable seat cushions. Is the upholstery in the 55 correct? Were the flip cushions only in 56s?

The reversible seat cushions were exclusive to the 1956 Caribbeans.

IMHO, the seats in the 55 Packards are far superior to the seats in the 56. I think its the last year that Packard used individual coil springs.The seats in my old 55 400 were more like the seats in my 48 Custom 8.The seats in my 56 Patrician are more like the seats in the Packard Eight, Model 200 and Clippers.The seats in the 55 Caribbean are very plush and comfortable.
