Similar, but not quite the same as CS's

Ive got some adaptor plates i had made to fit VXR seats in my 6R polo which i believe to be the same fitment as a mk5/6 seats. These incorporated the standard VXR rails to keep the tilt and slide

CS bases are not the same as VXR bases - they fit differently, i made that mistake once  :signLOL:
