rmn 0 Posted June 7, 2005 i am thinking of this.........pic and info please :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reaper1_3 0 Posted June 7, 2005 As promised pics of fitted TT seats. Fitment wasnt too bad, I had a local engineering firm weld a couple of frames which span between the original rado seat runners. These are bolted onto the TT seat runners at the rear. The fronts are bolted straight into the body either side of the original rado bolting points. Easy when you have thought about it for weeks!!!. You will see from the pics the TT seat sits no higher than the original seats although the TT seats are longer in the back than the rados. Im six foot and with the TT seat I still have plenty of head room. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted June 7, 2005 Top work mate. The best thing is they look factory as it should be! Another one for the real modders, who wants to just buy seats that plonk straight in! :) Like the anti rattle block in the sunroof! :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reaper1_3 0 Posted June 7, 2005 Jay that wooden block is actually a stop the sunroof falling in device! carefully crafted until i can be bothered to fix and it stops raining for more than a few hours!!! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoxyLaad 0 Posted June 7, 2005 lovely - I had seen a set of TT seats on ebay (wasnt thinking of buying them mind - just browsing (just incase our lass is watch :lol:) ) and looking at them out of the car they looked, well, sort of too big and not very sporty. Seeing them inside a corrado makes a lot of difference - I love them, nice and chunky. well impressed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KADVR6 0 Posted June 8, 2005 looking very nice there mate, and they do look better in a corrado than a hair dressers car. may have a look on the tt forum, i do like the baseball TT leathers. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reaper1_3 0 Posted June 8, 2005 Phil K yes they still slide and also height adjust, well the drivers does the passenger TT seat has a seized shox which i have currently removed to un- seize( Who cares i never sit in the passenger side!! LOL) I am planning to get the door cards and rear quarters covered in leather of course :D just not sure when and where! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randal 0 Posted June 8, 2005 That does look good, you'll have to post a pic when it's all in there. Liking that. How much did you pay for your TT seats if you don't mind me asking? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
