They look like the leather Recaros that were an option in the R32, but with a GTI logo retrimmed on.
I think you can buy them from VW but they are pricey. Someone on here bought them but I can't remember who.

They are about £1400 each.

Cheaper option is to get some recaro cs's

All the recaros used in VW are based on these and just re trimmed and altered.

No, these Recaros were a special option only available when ordering a new Mk5 GTI or R32 and ended in 2007. They are NOT the same as the CS.

They are NOT available from VW or Recaro at this time. Leather ones were a £2,300 option IIRC.

I've just got some cloth .:R ones second hand which are about to be re-upholstered in Interlagos : -
