Love mine. Tried the red and didn't like it. Going for the monotone look.

Still got mine waiting to be fitted.  Along with a few other repairs.

How are you guys getting them to fit?  Finally got some Red Electrical Insulation tape as recommended.

Was going to stick the tape on the seat adjuster then work out how to get the inlay to stick to the tape.

I think the top ones are fitted to the inlays in Recaro's and the inlay is shallower than the GTI/ED30 seats.  :happy2:

I was talking about the corners, look at the curves. In Hurdys pic they seem to fit perfect on the others the corners dont look right.

I thought they looked a bit odd too.
Left me thinking I hope they fit mine better.
