As mentioned elsewhere, I wouldn't go for it because of loss of adjustable lumbar support, but they do really suit the GTI.

Look forward to the reupholstered version!

Have you ever sat in one Stealth?  :confused:

RR, I don't want to be a pain and split hairs - but are you sure that they are CS seats? I was of the understanding the the GTi/R32/S3 (et al) seats are OEM specials from Recaro and arent commercially available. The Sportster CS are similar but the harness cut-outs are different, the bolsters are contoured differently and the head restraint is a different shape too. The OEM ones appear to be a hybrid of the CS Sportster and Sport models.

I hope I'm not out of line posting this in your otherwise excellent review...

^^^^
Thanks for this info, animal :happy2: - It's very helpful and I'm not at all sure about if "CS". I'll revise my original post accordingly.

^ Somehow I don't think the Recaro side bolsters were meant to withstand this kind of use. But, sometimes, who cares!?



[Actually, I'd rather not have my Recaros damaged]
