Ive got wingbacks foam and covers from mk6 seats in my mk5 seat frame and base, all I did was strip the seats down then fit the foam from the mk6's into the bare frame of my mk5's (only had to do alittle foam trimming to make it work) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc novataken Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Just to check, Would a 1992 RS2000 seat fit in mine? Can get em cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 3i Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Is your seat adjuster on the side on 2 levers or is it down on the front 2 corners? If it has levers it has mk5 seats, if they are in the corners mk5b and mk6 seats will fit. Mk5 seats are narrower aswell I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I assume 1992 RS2000 seats wouldn't fit? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScORTED Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 if its the grey velour mk5 rs seats they'll fit, if its the mk6 later style recaros they won't fit your car shaw your mk5b must have sat in a field for a few years before being sold to be an early 5b on an m, all my 5bs other than the k plate one were on the mk6 floor pan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
