Ah well - you beat me fair and square.  I had a £225 snipe lined up as I was on my way to work when it finished this morning.

I shall get there in the end.  I wasn't looking forward to having to drive to Bracknell from Devon to collect them though!  :surprised:

I am still on the hunt for these elusive seats!  :laugh:

It seems they are always quite expensive too, which I am surprised at.  Have seen R32 ones going for less.  Currently eyeing up a set on Ebay which are £395!  Really don't want to pay that much for just two seats!  :scared:  And there's a pair of leather ones @ £600 with a bid!  Damn!

Anyone hear's anything, give me a shout please.  :drinking:

If you come to the pod on Sunday there will be loads of them in the carpark plus a few spare wheels and a pile of clothes.  :evilgrin:  :laugh:

Well - My new passenger seat is now in my fabia.  The track between bolt holes was only 10mm wider on the GTI runners, but was enough to need lots of work :D  Hopefully the driver's seat will not take as long to do.
