yeah common fault..you can buy new seat runner clip's which wear out as vw made them in crap plastic and remembering last time this was mentioned someone said buy from vdub stealer as there only a few quid but much better than the ebay jobbies

its the clips on the seats. They are only a plastic clip and they do break unfortunately. I got some off ebay for about a fiver and it took about 20 minutes to take the seats out, change and grease the clips and put them back in. Well worth it!

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

If you are thinking of buying Corbeau's then they will come with their own subframe. So no need to bother with the clips!
