Hi all, for a wile my passenger side seat has had a little rock (movement) to it yesterday i desire to look in to it after i went for a trip to Ikea for these

best things to come out of Sweden ever [Y] and wile i was turning i could here the chair rocking so though would see whats the problem.

Any how!, i found that one of the wheels that sit in the runners had died a death so my Q is is there a giude to remving the wheel and replacing it, also a part number if possible for a new wheel if VW supple the wheel separably. If not i have a spare set of seats in storage i can take the wheel off so mainly looking for a guide to replace the damage wheel.

what it should look like [wheel nearest to the door]


the damaged wheel [nearest to handbrake]


as you can see the wheels destroyed

Thanks in advance

Mike

Dead easy to take the seats out mate, Im guessing it should be easy to replace the wheel once the seat is off the runners anyway.

Yer the seats are a dodel to swooped out did my old Velour seats for some nice Gray black recaro's
got the Velour's in storage atm

so if VW don't sell the wheels which i doubt they well ill just strip it off them as i am guessing there the same size/fitting cant see why they wouldn't be just need to know if its as simple as it looks or do you need a special tool etc

there's a bolt through it, it'll be obvious once you have the seat out
