was think of r32 seats but dunno if they will fit


Would need modifying to fit them,

Have a look at the half leathers that came with the mk2 and mk3 Cupras.

I have the gti recaros in my bora, have not looked back, so comfy. Don't think you would want proper buckets for everyday use

From someone who has actually had buckets & harnesses in a daily driver - they're brilliant, if it wasnt for how awkward they are to fit in an Ibiza I'd get some more in a shot!

Because of how the standard seats are fitted its a bloody faff to fit aftermarket seats without serious amounts of work!

If you are adamant on buckets, ask CraigW, and have a look at his thread, he's got a mk2 (basically the same car but better :p) and he is in the process of fitting buckets. By the looks of it, not easy as you have to have a subframe made up, then getting buckets that will fit snugly in your car.

i have reclining bucket seats in mine cobra daytonas but im selling them on as i have just bought some fixed bucket seats for the car, the standard seats are shocking after having these cobra's and im about average hight and weight. got some bride zeta's going in now super light and even more comfy than the cobras but its not my daily driver anymore
