Does anyone know if car seats from any other makes or models are compatible with a Skoda Citigo, specifically the driver seat? I'm finding the standard seats unsupportive and giving me back pain no matter how the seat is adjusted. 

 

I saw the post on car seats compatible with Skoda Fabia below, but don't know if these would fit in a Citigo.

 

 

Well of course all up/mii seats fit. I found that the seats from the sport/monte Carlo have a bit more support in them. These of course being a direct bolt in

They don’t. They are exactly the same seats. Just re trimmed. Even the UP! GTI has the same basic seats 

From memory the diameters between bolts is the same as the mark 3 Fabia, so in theory the mark 3 Fabia seats might fit, but only the front, don't quote me, you'll also need to code out the airbag warning light as the airbag is built into the side of the seat

I had a look on online earlier and the Fabia mk3 seats have the side airbag just like the CItigo, so perhaps minimal coding would be required.  See the attached image, it also has the same upholster as the ones in my citigo ha!  If as you say the "wheelbase" of the bolts is the same and I found one with heated seats I wonder if it would have the same connector as the Citigo?  i.e. plug and play.   I wonder if anyone here would know?

 

If the answer is yes then the question is the Fabia mk3 seat more comfortable than the Citigo seat?

Having had both, the answer is yes to the comfort.

That's good to know!  Really it could be a massive quality of life upgrade to the car.  The Citigo seat is lacking support and doesn't feel that great on the long motorway journeys.

 

If the connectors for the airbag/heated seats/seat belt warning/ are the same then it'd be someone I'd like to put on the car for sure

If you find they are, can you post it up, I might just do it.

Yeah of course absolutely I will do so.  Unfortunately the one I found with matching upholstery to my Citigo wasn't heated so back to looking.  I'll have to compare pictures/part numbers online to see if the connectors match if I can find one - but for whatever reason none of the ones on ebay are seemingly heated

What are these and do they fit easily into a citigo? Or did you have to change anything?

They would be non-OEM seats on a Citigo/Up, but you may be able to adapt them to fit the exiting runners.
Make sure you also adapt them for seat heating, seatbelt sensor and side-airbags and - if you don't, the latter will affect your insurance cover, being safety related.
