Polo Seats

[MKIVF]

Hi all.

I purchased my polo match as an ex demo car, and apart from it being all hunky dory, it lacks heaight adjustment.

Just wondering if I could purchase height adjustability, etc?

Is it just a base I attach to my current seats?

Further - does anyone know if aftermarket seats, such as recaros would fit in my car? I read on some forums that the MK3 seats will fit in the polo 6n... Will they fit in my car?

Any help appreciated.

I wonder if MK4 seats would fit?

What's the legal issues associated with removing original seats and replacing them with other seats. If insurance and the car doesnt throw an airbag error, I'd definately put a bucket seat in.

You'll definitely get an airbag light if you replace the seat with a non-airbag seat (you can do a dodgy to get around that though...)

Plenty of legal and safer options though - MK4 GTI seats??

I just sold a set of Mk4 Recaros

Still waiting see pics of them in their new home..

Are they going into a Polo?

Hmm, seems all a little complicated.

I wonder if I can get the height adjustment

Someone mentioned Polo GTI seats, which certainly have height adjustment.

I'm not sure what fits your car, but I'm about to remove my 2007 Polo GTI front seats to replace with Recaro shells. They are height adjustable and include side airbags. I was just going to put them in storage with my rear seats but if you're interested in them I'd be happy to consider selling them for a reasonable price.

Feel free to drop me a PM if you like.

Is there any legality issues with changing seats with ones that do not have airbags?

If not, I will also have a pair of seats and rails for sale.

how easy is it to replace seats? say replace polo ones with gti ones. both are aigbag ones?

[LoriJarrod]

You'll probably need the seat rails as well. That's where the height adjustment works. I imagine it would be bolt in with an electrical plug for the airbag. 20min with a spanner. I can't see the airbag connection being different, but you would be best to double check with VW first. Never know.

Maybe do a trial fit with a generous GTI owner.
