GTI seat retrim
« on: February 23, 2012, 02:43:37 pm »
The right hand body support cushion on the backrest of my GTi drivers seat is starting to fray a little. Anybody fixed this issue? Its the standard grey fabric on an 06 car.

I asked a few weeks ago about the grey fabric being available so that i could then have mine mended???

Heard nothing back on my post i'm afraid.

Im sure any decent vehicle trimmer can do it no problem, coulour match maybe an issue. Only other route is a new seat cover from VW  :scared:

I'd phone him tbh,
Mike is so busy (especially in the build up to Ultimate dubs) that he rarely replies to e mails, but will answer his phone, or call you back within the hour. :happy2:

You can buy the whole rear back support seat cover from VW for £90, and the foam bit is 50. Pretty cheap fpr VW really!

i have just phoned up the local dealers who tell me that the seat back cover is £197.71 inc.vat....

He wouldn't give me the part number as he wasn't allowed due to "liability reasons". How strange.

Mind you, last time I wanted some spray to refinish an alloy wheel, he told me the paint did not exist. Well until I gave HIM the part number....

I've lost post it note with this info on. I'm going into Colbournes later, so will get info. I was quoted a lot less than that though!

Description                                                                      Part number                  Price

GTi Interlagos cloth seat back rest cover                        1K3882806HTZX          £164.76+VAT

GTi driver's seat back rest foam                                      1K3881776CG              £66.59+VAT

Sorry, I reckon the price I got for the seat cover was a trade price,  :ashamed: so I will ring TPS in Guildford on Monday and see if we can't get this at a reasonable price.

I can get trade. The chap that sponsors our race car is a trader and gets stuff for me no problem. That price seems to tally with my price.

Thanks for taking the trouble. I'm sure it will come in handy for lots of folk.
