I'll stick my neck out and say I still prefer your original seats! They looked to be mint plus the bolsters at different to any other Ibiza seats. Probably just as rare as the Cupra r seats.

Those seats look awesome!! Work very well against the black paint of the car and the black carpet.

Good find those seats! :p. Very rare aswell.

THanks! :clap:

Totally agree with what your saying, funny as I always wanted a Mk2 with leathers and the one I bought didn't come with them! So here I am, but still the original seats are in the garage if needs be.

Picture update on the way soon

Some updates are a filter for the crack more than anything, pretty big! Gauges in, could do with some night shots to show the lights.

GTI twin pod headlamps now in, should have been there as standard but for some reason weren't. Clear indicators also in, car was fully machine polished and I finally painted the rear callipers black.

Looks so much better with the twin headlights on. Wonder why it didnt have them to start with.

Those indicators you have fitted, they look like pre-facelift ones :confused:.

Totally agree, apparently the last owner changed them for some reason =/

Indicators are after market Mk4 golf repeaters, had to modify them to get them on

Car is looking good!! :thumbup:. Wonder why the last owner changed them.

I thought they looked like mk4 Golf ones. I was refering to ones beside the headlights though, they look like pre-facelift ones? :confused:

Cheers :D Funny you should mention this actually,the lights sit somewhat further back than the old ones so there is a little gap around them. The loom also doesn't match the old lights, only 1 plug goes into the back even though I have two. Maybe that's why they don't seem a perfect fit

If there is a gap around them Lewis, you got pre/mid-facelift headlights/indicators.
I had the same on mine, so you got the wrong ones, very easy mistake to do

Not about being spaced out, different shaped (smaller and pre-facelifts have different wings)

See, mine were the same, when I bought wrong ones, you will need to find facelift ones (PS I think cordoba ones are same as pre-facelift, from when I was trying to find some, took me ages to get them)
