Wanting to swap the OEM cloth seats to black Leather Seats

Post by Hyphyv3 »

I've been looking at Golf R MK6.5 black leather seats on facebook marketplace and was wondering if they are compatible with my Scirocco R 2013. If not, does anyone have any advice on Black Leather seats? I've been trying to find the OEM Scirocco R black leather seats but with no luck.

Would appreciate any info or advice.

Cheers!

The seats out of the Golf R MK6.5 should fit your Scirocco R mechanically no problem, however VW has a habit of changing connectors therefore the electrical connectors may not match. Also the leather seats will be heated and if your Scirocco R doesn't currectly have heated seats, there will be some work required to get them operational, assuming you want to.
