found these pictures in Etka itself, i have added the names on the pics myself










....

So far, with Jonny's help :drinking: I've established that the part #'s for his Recaro Sports in Interlagos (which were in his earlier GTI, not Ed30) were : -

(55) | 1K0 881 405 JE | seat cover (cloth) | left | PR-NOD
08/05-07/07TZX | anthracite | -RZ

(55) | 1K0 881 406 AR | seat cover (cloth) | right | PR-NOD
08/05-07/07TZX | anthracite | -RZ

56 | 1K0 881 805 D | backrest cover (cloth) | PR-NOD

^ This info also matches the right and left seat cover #'s which 'Blue' has posted.

The info 'Blue' posted is extra helpful because it shows "leather/leatherette | JTH" parts, and therefore it looks like "TZX" (next to the date range) might stand for Interlagos.

I'm pretty sure that "anthracite" is the general term for the interior. Very helpful as he tried to be, my dealer's parts guy isn't quite up to speed on that.

Additionally, 'Tony_D' earlier in another thread posted part #'s which also match the above.

Methinks that all I have to do is confirm that "TZX" is Interlagos...........And starting saving in my piggy bank! Birthday donations very welcome!! :grin:

Those are the ones! 'Blue', you're a star!

Collectively this forum rocks! We eventually seem to crack everything and solve the problems.

....Yes, I think I said earlier - This community of enthusiasts has been invaluable at collectively helping. And even in handling his sale, Jonny has been exemplary in his help and caring - Too many people just take the money and run.

We all tend to help each other if/when we can and what goes around comes around and we all benefit - It's simply great and a real joy.

Yes, they certainly will look very sweet indeed....Sweet body-hugging eye-candy!

Just to help you NOT to have them even more : -

Apparently if you have a 3-door car, it is absolute hell for anyone to get in and out of the back seats. You have a 3-door I think.

....He gives details in his build thread but essentially he's seeking to save further weight.
