paulio252 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Hi,Looking to fit a pair of bucket seats to the Lupo. But, I'm afraid I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to seats. I was looking at a set of Racespex Seats but I don't have a clue what I need to do to fit them.If you know of any direct fit seats, that would be even better 10 Brownie Points Awarded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al3xTee Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 You want to put bucket seats in a 1L? May I ask why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 OMP, Cobra, Sparco and Corbeau all do Lupo seat frames, which let you bolt their seats straight to them.http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/seat-mounting-frames-vehicle-specific/car/volkswagen/lupo/1999/1-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patroddy Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 You want to put bucket seats in a 1L? May I ask why?because they look cool, and hold you better in your seat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 because they look cool, and hold you better in your seat!This, standard Lupo seats are pathetic. I'm on the slim side and I find my self sitting in the passenger seat every time I go round a right hand corner, no matter what speed I'm doing.

Jason_lupo22 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Are mk4 Recaros a straight fit or is there a load of fabrication required? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTIChris Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Straight-ish fit, have a look at this.http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?/topic/26932-how-to-fit-mk4-golf-recaros/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_lupo22 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Cheers for that. Iv been interested in fitting them for a while but i couldt tell where abouts needed grinding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTIChris Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Basically its the lowest part of the frame down to the welds that needs grinding as they rub on the carpet. If you get some and try a test fit you'll see what needs doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
