They look the biz; I'm trying to decide if they're a match for the door sills I bought a while back:

I reckon they're close enough, and cheap enough, that I might go a set too.

Edit: Done.

Wait, when did Lucas get a GTI?

Ive got the same sills as you. The seat inserts look to be the same style as the sills.

They arrived today - they look good and match the door sills too.

I wouldn't mind a set of those little inserts and the sill protectors... I haven't looked in a a little while but last time around it was impossible to find anything not marked up GTI or R in three door spec... and I just can't bring myself to put GTI/R stuff onto the Cabriolet...

Very nice - they look like a good fit (unlike some eBay-sourced inserts I've seen). Hopefully mine are just round the corner!

You can get some door sills and seat handle inserts that say "TSI" or "Golf" on them - but i haven't seen any with "Cabriolet" on them unfortunately. See here for some examples: Bold-Sport.com :: Interior

Brilliant! It's been a little while but as I said, 2 door variants just didn't exist in anything but GTI/R spec when I got my Cab. I'm more than happy with "Golf" on them... It's one thing to put the LED tail lights on a TSI because they look cool, another thing entirely to put the GTI badges on

They do look the goods, but they sure aren't cheap! USD60... I think I paid maybe half that for my GTI ones!
