Brian did the swap from a Golf but I guess interior wise it's the same as a Golf.

I doubt the door cards would fit though.

Cheers for that i spoke to the guy but he has sold the leather ones i was after, however he knows someone with the standard Bora interior they want to sell and ideas how much i should offer him?? Golf GTI interiors normally go for around 350 so i am thinking maybe 200-250 any ideas?

Edit: I have just spoke to the vendor and he wants 75 quid condition unseen at the moment but i am working on it

Any particular reason why you'd want to change the seats?

The current ones have done 80,000 miles and the drivers seat is knackered stained and horrible, also they have very little support and kill my back, the Bora ones are far better sculpted, i find them very comfortable and have done very few miles.

Got a complete set of Furby comfort seats, Alex...

But I imagine the Bora one's are likely to be more comfortable, perhaps... Furby seats don't have an adjustable lumbar support though, which the Bora may have - they're good they are!

Driver and passenger seat have lumbar support and both are height adjustable in the Bora.

Would these go with a Red car?Ebay

Those ebay ones seem OK to me. Dunno if they have lumbar support though? Check they don't get any bids in the next couple of days and pounce in there.

Well - sounds like the £75 seem good to me... let me if you fancy the GTI ones and I'll bid on your behalf if you're OK to pay for & collect them.
