Broke a part on my seat:(

Post by OskiRs4 » Fri May 30, 2014 7:06 pm

Hi there,
I managed to break that part on my drivers seat that a race harness would fit through, one of the two holes at the top,
I am sorry I don't know the official name,

I clipped it with a hoover attachment and it has cracked and falls out as the two half's wont clip together properly now,

Is this a part I can order?

cheers

I assume so as the seat can be made up by buying all the component parts. Or buy the carbon ones from argon.

was it the left hand side one as you look at the seat from the front ?

Any ideas on prices? I tried to take mine off the other day and they didn't look like they wanted to budge so I didn't want to force them until I knew how much a replacement would be.

Maybe a quick email to Luke @ PlushAutomotive is in order here - he may well have a tip or 2 on getting them off or even may have a spare to sell.
Give him a few days to respond [if you do email him] as I know he's uber busy all the time...

Good idea Kev, I'm going to give it another go tomorrow though and see how I get on.

On a side note, I took my seat out of the car earlier, my god they are so heavy. And cumbersome. How those scumbags get them through the seemingly small window I don't know. They must absolutely rip the door card, roof linign and dashboard to pieces.

I will put this in part number thread too but for the RIGHT hand side of the seat as you look at it, the outer seat belt guide (i.e bit you can see) is part number

8E0 881 259

and the inner part (which the outer clips onto) is;

8E0 881 629

this latter part comes with 3 x screws to attach it to somewhere inside seat so you don't need to order screws separately (I didn't know this so now have extra screws too)

once i've sent the wrong bits back (slight mix up with the order from Stoke Audi) and got the right bits I can give you left hand side part numbers too :)

Sorry I forgot about this. I took mine out but didn't make a note of the part numbers. I managed to do it without breaking them though.
Just out of interest how much were they?

think it was £56 all together with postage and the screws which I didn't actually need !

so each part was around £25 i guess
