daves16v 1 Posted February 22, 2009 Does anyone know if the seat bolster is still available at the dealer? I bought one well over a year ago and at the time I think they were almost obsolete. Ta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leon263 0 Posted February 24, 2009 I replaced one in my VR6 about 8 mts ago and was told that I had got the last one that VWUK had. Might only be b+llsh+t from the parts guy. Try and order one and see, £28 from memory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dec 1 Posted February 24, 2009 I picked up a 2nd hand set of seats for a few quid and butchered them for the good inner bolster from each seat. These inner bolsters were pretty much as good as new, as they get almost no wear on the inside edge of the seat; so I just swapped over the sides (so used the passenger side inner bolster from the donor seats on the drivers side outside bolster of the good seats and vv). Fresh 'good as new' bolsters for the £10 it cost me for and old set of front seats! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daves16v 1 Posted March 4, 2009 Dropped in at the Stealer today to ask about the bolster - their system doesn't say it's NOT available but should you order one they'll take a whopping £73 out of ya pocket. I bought one a couple of years back at about £27 ish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
