The vRS returns

[Jon TDI]

It's been a long time since I've posted on here, so here's a quick update of the Skoda:-

Jabbasport rear ARB,
Audi TT Coupe front seats in Black Nappa leather,
Rear seat trimmed to match front seats,
Audi TT centre armrest,

Colour coded door handle covers,
Colour coded front grille surround
And the latest mod..........
Audi TT 17" Competition alloys finished in Platnium Grey!

love the wheels and the seats look like they were meant to be there, nice that you went to the extra effort of trimming the back seats to match too.

[Sisson]

That looks ace...

Very unique and original,

How hard were the audi TT seats to fit...??

Im thinking of changing my seats.

 

[AwesomeSarah]

I must admit , the vRS seats was a bit of a begger to keep clean.
Looking good
Nice one

[Ad Lav]

Mmm...

Love it mate, looks sweet as! My dad should see this, might get him modding!

 

[jonjay]

I really like that very nice.

Nice leather. The local dealer here is doing a limited edition vRS with leather retrim and looks similar to yours inside. That's the only thing that puts me off the vRS, the interior. That looks really good though.

Congratulations Stew!

The alloys will be the last mod I'll do for a while!

Yep.

Existing vRS owners can have their seats re-trimmed in leather at the dealers.
The price is £1,300 though.

I did mine for less than half of that!

Im thinking of changing my seats.

The TT seats are mounted to similar style runners, ie horizontally mounted to the floorpan.
However, they are on narrower centres to the Polo/Ibiza/Fabia ones.

I removed the TT runners & used spacers to mount the Fabia runners to the seats.
It took me about 2 weekends to fabricate the spacers & get the seats in.
Another couple of days to modify a few things to get things perfect.


I can now get the fronts seats out & back in again with my eyes shut!!

Why would they need to be though, its a 5 door!

Looks fantastic though! Love the wheels especially, really suit it.

 

[WeeJase]

i thought you meant a proper vrs
wish i could swap my bloody seats out,silver and leather just doesn't get any slippier,or harder to clean.
