Hey Guys
As the title mentions I am looking to replace my comfort seats with Buckets and was wondering does any body have a contact in Germany\France for these type of seats? I am living on the Border between Germany France and Switzerland so its quite easy for me to travel to any of the above.
Thanks guys

Perhaps worth getting in contact with this person to see if they can help you out, think I found them on eBay.de originally:

Thanks Surrey Sam Ill check it out. These f***ing seats are so hard to find in a good condition and the price never moves. I have looked at getting some Recaro Sportster, but I just don't think I will be happy until I get the originals. Thanks again for the suggestion.
Cheers

They are nice. Re trimmed Rs buckets right? What is exactly 'big money'? Mmmm not seen any comfort seats on here for sale - do a search as they are not exactly on my radar...

Man I disagree, I really hate an all black interior so after buying these seats I plan on getting the door cards done in a similar style. Maybe go with the quilted look to replace leather section ( still researching this one).
Thanks anyway for the help with the search.

Thanks! Glad somebody else thinks they look good because I done a deal last night. Yes they are re-trimmed rs4 buckets, all material is original from Audi and I think they should freshen up the Interior a bit, getting bored of my B7 Interior and the door cards are next.
Here is the link in case anybody is interested. You can see his asking\expected price was quite high.

I love all black interiors and hate all black exteriors, taste is a funny thing.
Bet you can't wait for them to arrive, I do like the RS7's type of quilting but not sure if it'd work with the straight type on your seats.

Looks like a stealth version of a Live Aid blanket my granny made back in the 80's, far too much going on!
I sold a pair of comforts on here last year for £350. I priced them low because as they were silver there was a smaller market for them. Black ones go for about £800.
I paid £2000 for the seats, £1000 for genuine Audi leather from the factory (even the supplier to Audi had none) and £1800 for the labour so that asking price does not look too bad.

Man this made me laugh, so lets just call them Retro
Thanks for the info, if I can get somewhere near the 800 that would be great probably just stick them on E-Bay Auction and see what happens.
Thanks for the break down of costs, so I think I done well as I paid 5500 Euro for them including delivery and will hopefully get a nice reduction from the same company when I get the door cards done.

Sounds about right, new ones from Audi are £13k plus the cost of making them from the bag of bits they send you.
My seat panels from Audi were £2k ( £400 each plus VAT ) so coffey55 spending £5K isn't a leap.
I could biased as I sold him the seats though......
