Nice seats mate, looking good
What was the donor
Straight dot or are they on Touran bases ?
How about the looms etc
Tks
Thanks, they really are nice seats!
the donor was a 2008 Touran.
I broke the car myself, so took the bases as well, i'll get you a photo in a bit, they seem to have a double pocket thing going on.
They also have height adjustment, i'm 6' 2" so i have them right at the lowest point and they are about the same height as the original seats. if that makes sense.
the looms... on my poverty spec original seats, the only thing plugged in or indeed present was the seat belt light. its easy enough to fool that by 'making the connection' one of the plugs on the bottom of the seat worked so i left it there.
The seats have airbags and such but those bits aren't in the loom of the caddy (at least my caddy) anyway so theyll just not work.
No idea regarding heated either. I never checked the donor.

OK so the box efforts at the bottom...
As you can see the top one is a drawer, the bottom one is a pocket thing, they are slightly different.
didn't know there were 2 though, not seen that before.

Interesting to see the double pocket arrangement. I think it looks good. I have S4 seats on Touran bases but the seats don't have the drawer so there's just a gap there, which looks a little awkward and kinda annoys me.

I thought all the touran bases had the pockets?
Maybe not then.

The Touran bases have the pocket alright, but the Audi seats don't have a drawer. So the gap is between the top of the Touran base and the underside of the seat if that makes sense.

that's a huge gap without the pocket, i can see what that would annoy you
