Post by: BobbyT on 04 June 2007, 21:17

i like the leather seats in my car but would rather have Recaro's, how hard is it to swap the runners or should i just wait for some vw ones???  :undecided:  :smiley:

easy swap if you're handy with a welder... most people weld scirroco subframes onto ford recaro's.

as above^^^^ but if you havent got any spare seats it means wreckin your original jobbies..... so if you or a mate can weld just make sure your cuttin the vw bits off old seats and not the ones in your car.... lots of people make this mistake then find out they cant weld/measure and actually do things.... lol
