Seats from 3 door into 5 door

[cjm_harris]

Alrite chaps,

As some of you may know, I have bought a gti6 from a friend to raid some parts off. I wanted the rear axle to rebuild for my gti6, but also wanted the cyclones and interior for my daily diesel runner.

I only want the seats as obviously the door cards wont work, but having a bit of a mission with the seats. The rear bench has different ways of attaching to the mechanism that allows you to fold seats down (if that makes any sense) so had to swap the covers over etc. Not too much of a problem, but then I went onto the front seats.

These seem to have different subframes and attach to the car in a different way. Is it possible to just swap the subframes from the seats over?

Has any one done this before? Surely there is some that have got rid of the old man interior from a 5 door, and put a shiny gti interior in?

Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Chris
