    to reduce the shift throw? then yes

    My seats are pretty low, stock ones where ok, then highest adjustment on new ones are still lower then stock, so when all way down it feels like im on the floor pan haha

    Ever tried moving a car while you've got the seats out of it? It's massively strange.

    Hi,newbie input but if you do find a set of scirroco seats with the adjustment(mk2 rocco seats fit also)you need to swap the seats from side to side ie fit the left seat in the right position or pick the fabric and mechs off the seat and do a bit welding to get them factory).

    If you pick up pretty much any old recaro seats from anything you can buy model specific bases but you sit way high with them which is good for a racing POV but bad for a good slouch for a long journey.Id chop mine down but unles you get the bases second hand its a fair chunk of outlay to be hitting with a grinder
