RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

Hi all,

I posted this question over at Audizine and AudiSRS and was suggested to post here aswell to gain as much info as possible.

I am looking at purchasing an RS4 here in Australia however my partner has an issue with the bucket seats. She finds that the bolsters cut into her legs a little making it a bit uncomfortable. We used the toggle buttons on the side of the seats to dial out the bolsters as far as possible but it was still uncomfotable.

Now, I am wondering what my options are to alleviate this issue. I thought maybe I could make up a foam pad for her to sit on or more drastically swap out the passenger seat for a more standard A4/S4 seat.

If I was to swap out the seat for a standard seat, what is involved? Yesterday I was able to source a seat from a B7 S-Line. Is it just a straight bolt in without any modifications? Are the electrics plug and play?

I know this is a very very weird question, I am sure most of you guys are used to going the other way, RS4 seats into another model

If I was you I would just get an rs4 with the recaro comfort seats rather than the buckets to save any hassle.

Swap out partner

Put her on a low carb diet
Fixed

Swapping seats. Diets. All far too much hard work. Get her to ride in the rear...

Buy her a crap car as a runaround !!! Boomm!!

Make her run behind the car until the point comes where she's slim enough to fit in the seat.

I personally wouldn't but if your desperate?

standard seats look like oap home chairs, people chose those with the wood interior option.

its the only way

Being in Australia there's not many RS4's for sale. All of the current B7's for sale all of them have the bucket seats. I believe it is very rare to find one that has the comfort seats. I am after an Avant so would be even harder to find.

I wouldn't ask my local tramp to sit in those whilst consuming his favourite beverage...

There's your answer - bucket seats and floor that V8 to 8k - that'll take her mind off the bolsters pinching her...

Swapping seats is easy, 4bolts and plugs and done.
Just buy some S4 seats, they are the same. Ebay.de

FON.

What is your 'ho doing out of the kitchen in the first place? It's time to pimp-hand her backwards and leave her stranded.

This is why I love this forum!

Noobie comes on asking for some pretty straightforward advice and then proceeds to get slaughtered for having a fat a$$ bird!!

Priceless
