Hi All,
Just bought a 2008 S3 and found out that the original seats and door cards have been replaced.
Does anyone know of any original leather / half leather seats and door cards for sale or of any good suppliers / breakers for Audi parts?
Thanks All.

OP are you sure it hasn't got an Audi Exclusive leather and is actually worth keeping?
Can you post a pic of what you have in the car now?

The car has had the original S3 seats taken out and I need some replacement leather bucket seats to bring back upto spec.
Hopefully I've attached a pic of the current front seats correctly. Seems some pikey has taken the proper seats out.

FYI the buckets are an option. Afaik the normal S3 seats are like the s-line seats.

What do Audi charge for a pair of std or option seats for it?
I remember when I owned my Leon Cupra R that the optional Recaro fronts came in at about £2k IIRC new as spare parts.

stolen recovered?
wouldnt put me off if i saw the car like this.
happens all the time, stolen on the key and turns up mint with just a couple of bits missing.
good way to grab a bargain as long as you know what was wrong with it in the first place.

At the moment, buckets are a £2400 option iirc.

They are pretty much the same but the boggo s3 ones have electric lumbar support and s-lines dont.
Also some of the bogo s3 seats have a different design with circles imprinted into the leather
Like these i had fitted in the girlfriends a3,buckets look miles better,but are going for mad money when they do come up

Electric lumbar is an option
Standard S3 has dimpled leather centres.
