Brand new on ebay they are £195 I think, they are exactly the same in the dealers when I asked  :happy2:

I got a leather one removed from an r32 the other week for £115 on ebay. Fitting is really easy too I fitted mine and thats saying something  :ashamed:   If he wants to have the rear heater working then its a big job and i think you have to remove the centre console  :scared:

Indeed, it's in fact Hayselden Volkswagen that sells them at that price. I bought one and it was excellent, really chuffed with it. It's an awesome cabin extra.

Indeed Gaz, if I can do it, then anyone can tbh. Takes about an hour start to finish though following the PDF guide I found on the net somewhere. If anyone needs this, PM me  :smiley:
