Retrofitting from leather to Recaro's
« on: November 20, 2012, 09:08:53 pm »
Evening all,

Has anyone on here retrofitted a set of OE Recaro's to a leather interior with the electric lumbar support? If so is the input to the support taken from a separate harness to the fitted 3? If so, did you get get any fault codes if left disconnected?

Leather to Recaro's. I'm planning on doing this in my Rocco R which has leather as standard including the electric lumbar support (which i assume was included in the optional leather on the GTI?).

Shouldn't be an issue then. Thanks for the heads up mate, it's much appreciated.
