Title: Retro fitted gti seats.
Post by: Vwgtiking on March 04, 2016, 12:54:29 pm

The previous owner retro fitted the gti tartan seats. The gf noticed today that the pass side rocks/moves a  little. The seat stays firm in the locked moving forwards or backwards.

Is it normal to have a little play or does something need tightening?

It shouldn't rock at all. Its probably not seated correctly

Any links or guided to remove seats?

Its quite easy,  4 bolts on the floor runners and then they come out. Have you checked the diy stickies for a guide?

Sounds easy enough.  Do you know why it could be wobbly?

Yeah it's either not seated properly or the plastic spacer thingy has come out or is missing. I would check if its seated properly first
