neither mk4 or 5 are an easy swap. mk5's are probably harder due to the runner configuration.

Mk4 is a case of chopping and rewelding the bar the runner sits on to the right width and filing a bit of plastic from the roller and fabbing a bracket for the front mount to sit in, it's not too bad if you are handy with a welder and a grinder, recaro ones are a bit easier than the standards but neither will just drop in

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08
