Made a trip to the JY today. Of course it was like the hottest day of the month but I had finally decided I wanted to change to the sport seats in the wagon. I knew these were there, they had been for quite a while and as such they're dirty! I will need to spend some considerable time cleaning these though.
I also picked up an additional seat cushion to replace the driver which has a tiny hole in it and a base so the passenger seat has height adjustment too which it didn't have from the factory. I also bought some additional black fabric just like these from a couple cars where the seat backs had been protected.
I also bought the rear seats so if I eventually decide to use these in the Jetta TDI I'll have the rear cushions in this striped pattern, and, unlike the seats I have now in the Jetta TDI, which are from a 97 GT, These are split 60/40 in back which is what I always wanted.
While the bottoms can be pretty easily dismantled for cleaning, the upper sections with the big bolsters are always a pain to take the covers off of. I might just clean the uppers with fabric still installed, then again I wouldn't be able to install the heating elements that I'd like to install in these.
