Title: Changing seats
Post by: DF2008 on March 30, 2013, 05:40:55 pm

Guys,

Can anyone confirm the following.

I have a set of Leather Recaros in my 5 door GTI that i am thinking of selling prior to trading the car in.

Will a set of normal leather seats from a 3 door fit into my 5 door OK?

Thanks

Ok cheers mate but not looking to spend £2000 on a pair of front seats but thanks for the info. AFAIK 3 door seats do fit a 5 door but you will have the reclining function so personally I would hold out for a set from a 5 door.  :smiley:
