Golf seats in an octavia ?

[leviquattro]

I have just purchased a 4x4 octavia estate 1.8t, and while i find it to be a great car (quite fast). The leather seats provide very little latteral support and i find the seats unsupportive.

hence does anyone know if the seats fro a vw golf/boara/passat audi a3/s3 fit in the front (only looking to change the front two)

Golf 4, Seat Leon and Audi A3 seats will fit straight into your car.

Rollocks, Didnt spot them !!

If u want leather its not prohibitive to recover them, you will be lucky to get a R32 interior for less than

I had snipeswipe standing by too just in case that bid wasn't high enough / close enough to the auction close.

I was tempted to put in another bid in that last 8 secs or so after your bid went in as yours was only

You would have needed to bid

I'll be interested to know if you fit the rear seats too' date=' I didn't think those ones weren't suitable for a rear centre three point belt.

I'm guessing the door cards won't fit at all either.[/quote']

I fitted a centre lap belt with the R32 rear bench, I just leave it tooked under the seat though to keep a 4 seater look as the 2 main seats on the rear bench are like 'mini-buckets'.

Door cards definetely won't fit.

Yeah, I reckon that's the best thing to do, I hate that random lap belt lying in between the two rear seats and I also hate carrying 3 people in the back. It's not a taxi cab you know!

[DaveH]

Yep, trip to the scrappy planned to find a centre lap belt. Back seats are in already, very easy in principle, a bit of an effort in practice pushing and pulling. Front seats will have to wait a bit though, I want my old seats fixed under warranty before I remove them.

Get the bolt and fixings with the lap belt as they're slightly different IIRC.

[DaveH]

Eh up again Eddy! Will do, thanks. 2 trips for you was it?

[EddyH]

No I got them with it but didn't specifically ask for them and realised afterwards that I needed them.

[rich1068]

Still they provided me and Rich with some fun on Sunday afternoon (sorry Richard):

Cheers for that Dave.

[Dr. Octavia]

Ok, I've just won myself a set of these, slightly different, they're the ones that replaced the recaro seats.

Question is, can I get all 4 seats and door cards in the back of a 4x4 hatch (with the seats down obviously)???
