Audi A3 seats in a caddy

Post by Trigger »

Hi gents, me, again!

So I've found some seats to go into the caddy (58 plate) , which are some older (03-06) Audi A3 seats which will set me back just £30..

Problem is they don't have the seat belt buckles as the owner transferred these over to his new seats, can I fit the old belt buckles to these? Will it be much work?

Will the looms connect together okay?

Wanted to ask before committing is all

Thanks!

Buckles should just swap from your caddy seats, they did on my old golf gti seats. One bolt per buckle to swap them.

Loom won’t just plug in. What electrics do you have on your caddy seats? They won’t have airbags. Heated?

No looms to worry about then.

Should either bolt straight in or at worst you’ll need to drill a couple of holes to fit them to your caddy seat bases.

I bought a set of A3 seats for a bargain price too, went to fit them and as above found I had to drill holes, so bought a set of touran bases from eBay for £90 whole mod less than £150 bargain.

I found my S3 seats to be a perfect height and only had to drill 4 holes and was straight forward to do - much better and cheaper than buying Touran bases
