Scirocco R bucket seats

Post by samdehaan »

Hi everyone

I've recently signed up as i just got a 62reg Scirocco R.

Im looking to get some buckets, probably recaro sportster reclining seats, has anyone on here had them before? if so, how did you fit them? I can't find any sub frames online so I'm looking for some advice!

cheers.

Page 10 has the fitting kit part number (86.83.16/26), the rails/runners are a separate part No, speak to a proper recaro dealer to get a set of matching parts. The PN is also used for the Audi A3/S3 8P and various other VAG vehicles.

S3 (8P) seats will fit, RS4's won't without modification. The s3 seats need to be manual operation 3dr, mk5 GTI or r32 seats fit...

RS4 seats where not IIRC available with manual operation so the slightly wider trim fouls plus you would be able to adjust the seat.
