Front seats upgrade

Post by hatton014 »

Hi before I go too the breakers later, do Audi a6 s-line fit in the caddy with or without toucan seat bases? I had been looking at a3 s-line seats online which look class but seem too be like hens teeth, especially the 2015 onwards seats

Only the seats from smaller cars like A1s fit onto the caddy bases unless you modify them or I believe have the caddy life bases which are just touran bases.

For anything from the rest of the Audi range you’ll need a set of touran bases, usually about 100 quid for the bases and bolts on eBay for the pair. So A6 you’ll need the bases too, I have a set for my s5 seats, the only downside they do raise the hight of the seat slightly

Yes, as Adwano has said, you will need Touran bases to fit the A6 seat. It is a fairly straightforward job! Whilst it does raise the seat hight, there is a chance your A6 seats has more seat adjustments so in the end you will be better off!
