alivr6 0 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 i can get hold of some r32 interior from a mate !amazed problem is how is any one aware of how easy/hard it is to fit. Link to post Share on other sites
six appeal 53 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Does it matter, get the buggers in there! That'll set your motor off a treat mate!I know MJ Interiors fit MK4 seats in a MK3 so it must be similar? Link to post Share on other sites
VRmonster 1 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 involves welding the floorpan or frames of ya seats. the frames will be the same as mk 4 wont they. so u could look for a mk3/4 cabby as they have a mk 4 frame to suit a mk 3 floor. yey Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 if you don't want them, i'll have them?! lol Link to post Share on other sites
antera309 3 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 You can get the Mk4 runners welded to the floor, or you can modify the subframes on the seats themselves using metal cut from the subframes your old mk3 seats.I'm told that modding the floorpan gives better results, but modding the seat subframes is easier and doesn't mean doing without your car for 3-4 days.It won't be possible to get the side airbags to work, though, as these won't be supported by the Mk3's airbag system. Should be possible to get the heated seats working though, using a modified Mk3 heated seats wiring loom.I'm trying to find the forum post on VWVortex.com that gave me all this information, but I've had no luck as yet. I'll post the link when I find it.It's a lot of work, but for an R32 interior it's well worth doing. AFAIK, it hasn't been done in a Mk3 yet, so go for it!! Link to post Share on other sites
dubloke 4 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 or you can just get in touch with revolution motorsport, who supply the same koenig seats as in the r32, in different guises, in , more or less, the colour of your choice to match your motor, and subframes too, for not much more than an r32 front seat pair and re-trim of rears, plus subframe work will cost you anyhow!

VRmonster 1 Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 yeah, go for revolution motorsport, and sell me the r32 interior for half the price, lol. sounds fair to me. Link to post Share on other sites
alivr6 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 ok lots of routes to take, just out of interest how much is the revolution interior and where can i purchase them 8o) but then again i aint gonna get the rear bench, whats the difficulty in installing mk4 rear bench to a mk3 Link to post Share on other sites
VRmonster 1 Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 it will fit, but again involves welding new brackets to hold it. i would imagine if you could weld, it would be fairly easy. other than that its gonna be a bit of cost for labour. this is the same rout im taking but just havent found a mk 4 leather interior yet.

six appeal 53 Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Wilko from No-Rice has MK4 leather in his Red Mk3 VR, as does Phils Silver VR on ClubGTI forum, he has some pics of it on the memebers section. Both look very nice. But the R32 one HAS to be the way to go. Link to post Share on other sites
