Sorry for dragging up an old post, but I felt information would be best kept in one thread.

Does anyone know the Part numbers of the complete Recaro's with interlagos are? Been googling for a past 2 hours trying to find an answer. I have not even managed to get the Leather version.
decided I will attempt to take a seriously big harden up pill and ask VW for price and availability.  :surprised:

I'm guessing part numbers listed by RedRobin are merely for the seat covers as appose to the full replacement seats.

I know it sounds crazy. But only being able to buy one of three sets in the past 24 months. First requiring replacement seats and then one set on ED38 (which sold with in 2 days) and Leather S3 seats in MK5 classified. I really do want the interlagos. I understand how RedRobin feels.  :drinking:

So If anyone is able to help that would be greatly appreciated. At least this way anyone else in the future will be able to direct themselves to this thread and get the correct information.

....No apology needed, buddy - It helps everyone to keep information in the same thread.  :drinking:

These Recaro versions were an expensive VW factory option which they stopped in ~2007 - They are as rare as rocking horse poo.

Perhaps those seats are still able to ordered new? I was aware that they stopped them, I do want material not the leather ones.
Otherwise i'm left with no choice other then buy a whole car in the UK and ship it back to New Zealand. As i have found a handful of R32's over here with them in. The leather version.

No, you cannot order them any longer. You could never order them separately unless they were installed in a factory car.

Thanks Stu, for some reason I was aware of this. As to when I bought MK4 R32 seats.
