I have heard a few discussions concerning people changing their seats with other car types - just exactly what other makes will fit? I have a '69 bug that I want to get some better seats for (not new, just good secondhand) and would like to know what will just slide straight in.

I have heard something about Subaru seats, Honda (?), but not sure, can anyone help?

Eventually I will be looking at the same with my '60 bug, are these the same size, etc?

Thanks

i have gemini seats in my baja.....lol thats kinda funny saying that as i only paid the deposit today lol but they are shit and i wouldnt recomend them i am getting the seats out of a subaru L series sedan to put in there but if u want to be able to get into the back seat of a bug easily then u need seats out of a hatch back car so they come forward good......get em attached to VW seat rails and bobs your mums brother....MX6 seats are great and have great adjustment.....any late model seats as long as they are comfy and dont restrict the handbreak or being able to get to the seat belt thingys

yup, i am using rx3 seats and they are perfect. also have some spare subaru seats laying around (havent tried them in a VW) and they are small and comfy

do it properly, get some nice after market ones, aerotach, momo, recaro etc

got early honda prelude (I think) seats in my 69, plenty of adjustment, fold forward, comfy, bit tight getting to the handbrake, but bearable - they seem to be welded to the original seat rails, and I have an engineers report to say they're cool - which I believe you are supposed to get in NSW

you have to get an engineers report in every state....got seat cordobra seats in one of my golfs.
