In terms of fitments are you just modifying the existing base to fit the seat rails?

Hmm, there's a pick-a-part near me in Newcastle with an Audi A4 with Leather Seats. I wonder if they will fit. Nice cheap upgrade if they will.

I'm pretty handy with a welder and some metal fab so I reckon I can probably make it work either way.

Any of you guys have carpet on the floor? Mine just has awful rubber flooring. Can't seem to find anyone that makes carpet for these.

So this is a little off topic but am I to understand that Touran interior trims/fittings are the same as the Caddy? I have a 2k Caddy Life Camper and when I Google for parts I get a lot of Touran references.

They do, they are based on the same chassis.

The Touran was never sold in Australia though, so everything will come from overseas and at a price.

Carpet floor, centre console with armrest and seat bases with storage and all Touran items.

In Australia we had a "life edition" of the caddy and caddy maxi. they had things like touran front bumpers and door cards, theres one being wrecked in NSW at the moment. Its green and listed on ebay.

Hope this helps.

To those in NSW what/where are you getting your tuning done? I'm considering getting my 1.9 TDI tuned and would like to here what others have done.
