Ive been offered a pair of seats for £400 which is cheap but are they a pain to fit?  Anyone done this mod

Are they from a MK5 Golf?  :huh:  if so it will be a direct swap

Anything else will require modification

Plugs should be the same

Disconnect the battery prior to swapping and you'll be fine  :wink:
