Rich Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 i have heard that the most pikey and commonly used bodge is to get some pikey to knock you some up. if you look at the base of the mk5, it bolts up with four bolts in the corners, commonly used by most manufacturers. the lupo is cool and has rails etc. you get a sheet of decent steel, weld four nuts into it so the seats will bolt up to them and then you weld said sheets over the runners that the rails go in. you kill off part of the car when you do this mod and most position the plates badly so the seats don't have the right kind of adjustment any more. now you know, you shouldn't do it, buy some **** mk4 recaros and keep the originals for Sundays and public holidays.
