Have had a look on the net but can't see any mention of it being done before.

Hell, if you can get one into a MK2 a mark 3 should be a doddle! :wink:

Front seats will fit with adapted/welded subframes but the rears are a complete nightmare different in every way!!!

Only know of one guy to do this and he said if he knew how much of a ball ache it would be he would have never bothered

yes it fits -need to modify subframes on the front seats no welding needed. and back will need to be modifyed too.

Saul if you can make a mk4 trim fit without welding you should let the dubbing world known

I'm right now in the process of installing a Mk4 dash into my car, and I also have a set of leathers from a B5 Audi A4. I can't wait till it's all finished!  :laugh:

Mk4 seats need welding as the track is wider than the mk2 and mk3 and also the front mount is totally different the Recaro ones have a bar so it's just a case of chopping off the mount and shifting it along a bit :)
I have mk4 seats in the front of my mk2 and the backs are going in shortly. I just went to a breakers with a generator, an angle grinder and drill and robbed all the seat brackets which cost me more than the feckin seats did!!
