I never heard of an outside supplier selling seat foam for A3 vw's. $140 doesn't sound all that bad to be honest, and you know it's fairly good stuff. You could always try to locate a good used seat instead, they are dime-a-dozen or maybe you can find seat foam in bulk and try to sculpt your own cushion.KIMBER said:Having drivers side seat repaired. Anyone know where to buy new formed seat foam reasonable? A3 Jetta. Dealer price $140.00!
There may very well be something out there that works, but i find the OEM stuff to be of very good quality. Splits? Yeah, if you stick your knee on the seat bottom enough times to retrieve your cell phone from the opposite side floor board, it will eventually split.Bookerdog said:Not correct on them not being available outside of the dealer. The A3 seat foam splits regularly.
I got a replacement for my old A3 through one of the related Parts.com suppliers. I think mine was about $60, but I recall thinking that I got a great deal.
A quick search on parts.com revealed they are selling them for $104. Link I would look definitely take the time to search some of the other parts sites to see if you can find it even cheaper.
