Replacement seats for a Mk VI GTI?

[Burry]

Hey all,

I was wondering if there are any alternative aftermarket (or VW) seats around. I am after something wider/flatter to better accommodate a, um, 'fuller' figure.

Also, ideally using a mesh (like on a Herman Miller Aeron chair) so that they breath easier.

Cheers

I'll tell you what. I'll swap the wide/flat seats from my Trendline for your cramped/uncomfortable GTI seats. Get back to me and I'll come around and do the swap.

Thanks for your kind offer... but I want to hold on to my old seat(s) for when it's time to sell.

I reckon the best seat for the...ummm fuller figure is probably the Passat seat. It lacks the side bolsters found in the cushion of the golf seats. By just looking I reckon they'd be a direct swap, and even the air bag plug seems the same but I certainly haven't checked this out. Anyone know?
