Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • T5 seats

    Hey folks
    We have an 08 T5 Crewvan with captains seats up front. Basically they are pretty much the most uncomfortable seat I have sat in. Has anyone fitted better seats or are older Caravelle etc seats better.

    Any help much appreciated.

    You can fit Golf GTI (MkV), Saab, or even BMW Mini Cooper seats. I've seen Porsche buckets but you have to keep in mind high bolsters will make entry/exit more difficult.

    I find the Captain seats OK though I'd rather have height adjustment instead of swivel.

      Thanks for the reply. Golf GTI seats sound like the go. Any good links to wreckers etc.

      Thanks Justin

        Great help, thanks! The standard Transporter seats are murderous! (I, too, regularly drive 8-hour trips).

        Do you know which Saab in particular? I have an old 9000 and the seats are great - I'd be chuffed if they bolted straight in!
