took me about 5 minutes to install. Delivery took about a week if i remember correctly! only small issue i have is the right light seems to be a bit smaller than the OEM one so doesnt fit perfectly but hardly noticeable.

Re: S3 bucket seats retrimmed and fitted

personally not a huge fan of the harnesses myself, but they really are a huge improvement with fast road use, don't roll around the seat like the car is throwing me around. allows me to be still and can concentrate on driving more! shame that they are such an eye-saw

Re: S3 bucket seats retrimmed and fitted

The seats cost me £1800 in not the best condition.

The re-trim cost a further £2000 to have the front and backs of the seats completely re-done in alcantara with the custom stitching.
