Hey things are looking great what rear seats did you get installed. Do you have a link to sir us and if you don't mind me asking what cost was involved in getting the rear seats and carpet done. Keep.up.the great walk through

Hi thanks! just google Sirus Automotive you'll find them it's a huge workshop that makes mobility vehicles. I spent £1200 and got the seats and seatbelts fitted, got the rear carpet with storage, the caddy 4 life center console and had my speed limiter raised up with VCDS so that it doesn't work.

Thanks for that info did they supply the seats and carpets?

Seats yes and seat belts but carpet officially NO I saw your thread about the ebay deal but that's what they usually charge.

[geo.stronach]

Yes a see your reply thanks for that info it's good to know

Does it matter what year the touran seats come out of? To fit say 2011-2012-2013 year caddy maxi?

Touran seats is a different kettle of fish, the seats Sirus do are middle row from a maxi life or Kombi rears (all same seats just different cloth). All fitted and seatbelts as per OEM spec. The Touran seats are different and a Caddy was never designed to have them fitted (although I'm sure there's safe ways to fit them).

I like the Kombi setup because not only removable but fold fully over out the way.

Ah I see I think I have confused myself so it's maxi life or kombi seats. Thanks for that. Would it be possible if you could take a few pics of your seats

I did back at the start of the thread

Got the new bigger discs and carriers on the caddy whip today, just need to decide on a colour for the calipers now im thinking a steel grey might be nice. Next up lowering and colour coding plus a couple of touches to finish off the exterior

[Maxi4life]

Finally got the front end down. This is on H&R springs and Bilstein b8's and sits exacty how I wanted it, not too low for work

Had a good day at the local breakers today, got two maxi life doors complete both with sliding windows. A real shame my vans not that colour I'd love if it was. Will have to get a quote to get them painted white. Got a load of other bits while I was there too

Doors will look good when fitted, just like a kombi

Yeah I can't wait to get them painted I'm hoping that they can just mask up the glass and manage to get paint in the gap. Wasn't intending to get the doors until I saw them on ebay and they were only down the road in devizes.

For £270 in this condition I couldn't ignore this bargain. Sirus want £600 just to fit one sliding window to your existing door, then you need all the trims etc I'll try to get a good deal on having all the parts colour coded with one batch of paint mixed up.

Next thing I'm buying are the roof rails that you've got

[torque777]

That's a cracking price
