Seat Upgrade Gallery

Fresh from 'The Trimguru' - gone classy. Black Leather with white stitching plus heated upgrade.

Looking good, what was the damage?

 

[Montecha]

A highly reasonable £1300. 5 seats full Leather inc the heating elements.

I had a a couple of cheeky GTI check cushion covers made as well.

Then had to go for the GTI look for my office chair

Finally I bought an old Audi central / mushroom headrest of eBay for a fiver, got that trimmed the same - its perfect in the centre for a full rear view.

Need to go the same way with the centre headrest as that really gets on my moobs.

Definitely the biggest headache is deciding on what you go with, as the choice is almost limitless. I had a few designs I really liked, but kept coming back to this one.

loving these and interested in how you mount them

 

[JaySal]

Mounting will be easy enough it’s having room to swivel which is proving a pain at the minute. I’ll post pics of all mods at the end.

Seats are in, Bus stop VW laser cut the plates which they sit on and fitted on the safe swivel base.

The seats and flooring look fantastic! How have you fitted the armrest?

Did you manage to flog the rest of it? That's the only problem I found with having to buy a complete interior to get the seats.

I bought a sequoia table leg kit, the base plate was bolted through the floor, the a round steel plate bolted to armrest bracket. I'll take some pics and post them as im crap at explaining stuff. The rear seats are with the upholsterer who is going to use as much leather as possible on my RNR bed cushions to match the front. I still have the door cards which are like new.

[JaySal]
