leweylupo Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 i like how they look. and theyre a damn site comfier than the lupo ones why not?I used to have a Scirocco 1.8GTi rare beast Awesome carAnyway, point I'm making is & its been a bloody long time since sat in a Scirocco but can't see the seat height being anywhere near as sit v low in a Scirocco so would think that would have to be thought of might be an awful lot of work for you?

leweylupo Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 (edited) yeah i noticed theyre pretty low in the car like, i just wanted to know how you actually go about getting them to fit!):well u can make anything fit with an angle grinder & a welder but if mot boys clock it you have had it cutting a seat subframe & re-welding is the only way you will manage it personally i wouldnt bother, not worth the time, aggro always wondering if mot guy will spot it Go for a set of Mk4 reacros smart seats plenty of info around on it beeen done before but you can pull adecent set for £150.00 thats what i'd do if wanted something non lupo in my car.

Mitchell Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 exactly. why not?finding decent ones will be a hard task , the cars sit very low and the seats even lower so they suffer horrendously with bolster wear and foam collapse, thats all.
