No problem David--I'll have it in Sacramento for you! I had already reserved that set for you, so there is still one set left. A few are interested in cloth, but as of yet availability is still as mentioned a few posts up... :)

BB any idea which MK IV the red and black ones were originally made for?

I'd do red stiched leather shifter boots for $70 shipped for recaro orders. $90 for everyone else. And sorry Bob, I am not sure what they were made for--perhaps they were never made for a specifc car, aftermarket only--but due to the MK5 being out they decided to discontinue them. *shrugs*

I can get one red stitched ebrake handle for $29. There is also grey, black with yellow, and black with green (odd).
Meanwhile, all 2-door recaros are sold out. Current availability:
2 sets Beige leather
3 sets red/black cloth
Cheers,

PS I know I mentioned earlier that there was one set of beige leather remaining--my vendor said he had a couple sets that had discolored a lot due to sitting for a few years overseas in a warehouse (seeing as leather is organic). They took them to a professional cleaner and they cleaned right up to like new condition. That gained us two sets. :)

They were OE on certain high end european Jetta & Golf models. These are factory seats, specifically made for VW, not aftermarket.

Do you know for which model years they were made?

Not exactly but somewhere in the 1999-2001 range I believe, based on the airbag harness.

I thought you said your have BLACK (and RED) leather available as well?

Do you only have beige in leather?

Grey is what I want.... but those are gone.

Any other leather besides beige?

Snip the wires and splice them :).
Meanwhile, I only had one ebrake handle, shift boots aren't a problem. I'll see if I can source another ebrake...

Finally got mine installed. VERY comfy. I'll be sleeping in the car now instead of my bed.

do you still have any of the black/red cloth seats? any of the heated?:)
Last I checked there are a couple 4-door sets left. None are heated. At least you can retrofit them :)

Nope, there were two sets and they went first week. :(
Of course two weeks after that I bought a 2-door car...
