Fabia leather seats

Featured Replies

These are up for grabs! They are out of a Seat Cupra and are very comfortable. They are converted to fit a Fabia.

Asking price is £250 + your standard VRS seats, they have to be in good condition though.

It's a more than fair price :) I'm sure these will be gone in seconds! Haha

All the best mate

GLWS Dan would have had these but took the other set Pulse did :)

Oswestry or Ruthin area :) VRS seats would need to be in good condition mate.

Do they have air bags?

Do they have air bags?

Yes they do, although I've inly just noticed when you asked, I had to check. There is a little air bag tab stitched onto the side of the seat.

Wouldn't be too far to go had I got a pair of seats to swap with you, alas, as yet, I don't! :(

Found another SE within 30 minutes drive, going to view it on Sunday, if it is anything special I may not be buying the seats ;) 

Good for me, not so good for you ! haha

Hi Dan

Are your seats still for sale?

If so I'll have them, subject to them being a straightforward replacement for 2013 model vRS (seats as new).

Let me know.

Don't suppose you want a set of Monte Carlo seats instead of VRS ones?

Possibly, my mum has a Monte Carlo but I can't remember what the seats are like in hers.

In as much that Dan the Man & myself have agreed to swap his leather seats for my vRS ones, somewhere on a wind swept motorway carpark, between Blackpool & Oswestry, herein lies the problem.

 

In preparation for the proposed swap, I thought I would do a dry run, to see what was involved. So armed with my trusty RAF toolkit, replete with Whitworth & AF spanners, I attempted to remove the front seats. First problem. The seats are held in place by Torx set screws (whatever they are?) Not having the required Torx bits off I goes to Halfords to buy some - best part of 20 quid!

On the drivers side, 3 screws removed no problem, but one would not budge. Soaked it in WD40, left it for half an hour, had another go. Still would not budge. End result - the screw head is all chewed up, & the Torx bit just spins round with no grip. I mention the problem to an engineering savvy mate of mine, who says I will have to remove it with some screw extractors. Off I goes to Screwfix for the said screw extractors & some titanium coated drill bits (another 30 quid!). Commences to drill a hole in the the Torx screw, starting off with a 2.5mm drill bit, which promptly snaps.Similar story with a 3mm & 4mm drill bit. I end up drilling with a 5mm drill bit, without the drill bit snapping. Then I insert the screw extractor, & turn the square end with my adjustable spanner. Still will not budge!!!

I'm now left with a screw extractor stuck in the Torx screw. To make matters worse (if at all possible), the square end on the screw extractor is now rounded off, so I can't get a grip on that now. HELP, - anybody?

 

Problem number 2. Front passenger seat removed no problem, but there  is an electrical cable that comes up out of the floor & disappears into the bowels of the seat. The seats aren't electric or heated, so what is the cable for? Completely nonplussed!!. But it raises the question  am I going to run into compatibility problems with swapping my seats for Dan's? Is it something to do with the airbags, maybe? And if so will that cause problems with the CANBUS if the seats are swapped.

 

PROBLEMS, PROBLEMS, PROBLEMS. Why is nothing in life so simple?

Answers please on a postcard

Dan,

Sorry I just can't help myself but if you get the MK2 Vrs seats and decide to sell them I'd like to make you an offer.

Get back in line.... :giggle:
