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,

    Guys,

    Any of you seen this OEM RECARO Fabric buckets for GTI?

    This photo is from Germany. Wonder if we can choose this as an option in AUS and how much....

    No harm in asking. But from dealer experience stories from around the country ... I wouldn't hold my breath.

            not a fan to be honest. They just look awkward.
            I think the standard seats suit that material better. And the recaros look better in leather.

              They shizzle my nizzle...look better than the leather R32 ones IMO....would look great in a retrimmed Mk2 as well

              Couple of people have proved that you can get stuff out of certain dealers if you push hard enough, would be worth a try!

                  i like em not too bad, off the topic, all new GTI's should have electric seats as it is a 50k vehicle, the knob is too hard to turn. Everytime i tell chicks to put there seat down they struggle doing it and makes the situation real awkward.

                      A leather/fabric combo would look smooth (a la 30th Anniversary).

                              I love my Koeings (MK4) too much to let a girl (usually uneducated about VWs ) play with them. I already had a little handle that unlocks the seat come off when a girl tried to lift it.
                              I love my seats, but i prefer my bed for things like that
