They look shocking  puke_l  puke_r  puke_l  puke_r

I think the right motor for them would be a green Lotus Bighorn.

I might be able to help you there hilarious



They look great mate Wink  Very Happy

Seat belt clasps need swapping (well they did on mine) as they are a different size plus the mk4's have pre-tensioners

Eithan.... The front seats are in very good nick, but one of the S springs has snapped on the drivers one. Easy repair with the seat out of the car  Cool .  I've sent you a PM Wink

As for the seat belt issue....

Basically  I've taken the runners, which includes the clasp and the pre-tensioner mounts, off my old seats and just swapped them onto the Recaros. It's a straight swap and dead easy, 2 bolts on one side of the seat and 4 on the other. I had to take the whole seat and subframe assembly out to do it, but that's only 4 bolts into the floorpan, and one that holds the clasp mount onto the runner.

Same seats I have in my bighorn. Epically comfortable. Ive come from a celica background and until I wiggled my ass into these a gen 6 celica was the most comfortable thing I had sat in! Shame there's no centre armrest though.

Yes they are comfy,I've got the same ones in mine, they might even be the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in for a long journey!

Cheers
