Seat Options
« on: August 26, 2014, 01:17:47 am »
Hi, I've tried using the search function but struggled to find an actual thread on the topic.
I've just bought a GTI cloth rear bench for a steal price, and now I am wondering what seats to put in the front. The obvious choice seems GTI cloth front seats, however I'm after a list of what kind of seats you can actually fit in the MK5 other than golf seats?
I like the idea of changing the red plaid in the cloth seats to a blue colour (if that's possible?) as I'm after a black/blue colour scheme within my car, so any seats you know that will fit which also have some blue accents will be a bonus  :happy2:
Thanks in advance.

R32 Bucket seats (not sure on the actually production name but a quick google and you'll find out)
Recaro Sportster CS - Same seats that are in the focus RS / corsa vxr..

Others on a quick google website i found..      http://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/vw-golf-mk5-bucket-sport-seats/cat_494.html?page=0

If your after blue stitching then its possible but at extra cost.. Look at EDGEautomotive / MJ interiors / Plush automotive and many others out there but thats just a few to look at for some ideas maybe.

No problem :smiley: There will be more seats that can fit with either modification or some subframes that you may have to buy separately but check all that out before agreeing to buy some seats.

Don't forget to hit the "Thank you" button in top right of members posts :smiley: :happy2:
