amckenzie Posted July 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Okay so I've been looking forward to this post and i thought i would show you. I was going to keep it a secret till after fittedUK but can't wait that long, need to keep you guys in the loop and all that So at the weekend the driver side seat was fitted after searching high and low for the part i needed to fix this seat, it came to the surface that i needed to spend £245 on a new left hand side rail motor for the little part i needed.... Nah your good audi....Julian the friend that is the mastermind behind the audi seat fitting, came up with a genius plan to add some weld into the mix and also a few files and well.... he's a legend and pulled it of and fixed the piece.... Picccccctures!Thats the final product and it fits nice and snug into the motor and works a treat.... ok ok I've kept you waiting long enough...Brings a tear to my eye.... Looks so rad and probably the most comfortable seat I've sat in!! This weekend the seats will be plumbed in so the electrics will work fully Now just to finish the boot build and Finish up the little loose ends in the car in time for FittedUK! A big thank you to julian for all the help he has given towards this pretty silly idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amckenzie Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Ok this will be quite a big update, had a busy weekend. Interior time!First of saturday, its started with the thermostat breaking and over heating the whole engine, so a trip to the local part and new one is brought and fitted within the a couple of hours...The carpet i picked up in the week from Amber, the lovely owner of the most beautiful lupo in my eyes, Alva! Thank you again Amber!!So stripping out the inside was a bit of a ball ache but ohhh it will be worth it! Black carpet finally! every Lupo should have this as standard! 10x better looking! alright back to fittingA good hoover and clean inside, yer its under the carpet, but by god it was grim!! now its sparkling!! Whilst i was at it, i fitted my new seat belts, all the grey will be gone!! Out with the old.... In with the new....I fitted Black runners at the same time, going for that murdered look Here goes the final wiring and plumbing in of the seat wires.... Yes Electric seats!!Super clean finished and coming out of the heated seat/airbag slit int he carpet for that OEM finish.Seat brackets all painted up at the same time so they merge into the rest of the car.Male and Female caps on the ends so for a easy pop in pop out fitment if i ever want to change the seats.Note to self : Don't recover a boot build at midnight the day before s show you have to leave at 4 o'clock in the morning for....Little rolling shot going into dub fiction at 7 in the morning....*yawn*Ill get some nice photos of the build and the interior once I've finished off all the little bits! more updates for you guys, aren't i nice!
