Avant rear seat in a coupe

[Greg_S]

Im after some measurements and maybe some pictures please guys. Im trying to find out how easy it is to fit the rear bench seat from the avant into a coupe, including the fold down seat backs and side bolsters.

Fingers crossed it shouldnt be too difficult to do but ive got a feeling there is gonna be a lot more too it.

cheers

The coupe seat is very similar to the saloon seat. At worst the Avant covers could be fitted onto Coupe seats.

It works fine apart from the ones from the RS2 though.

There should be a local auto trimmer who could help.

An image of first trying-on to fit rear avant (non-RS2) seat to coupe.



Problems, we are facing, can be seen well here. Something is to be done with the gap between backrest and bottom seat. We have to either low down all the mounts (welding) or rise up the bottom cushion to remove the gap (+ cut away a piece of side bolster).
According to images, looks like true RS2 backrest is higher and better for that purpose.

Looking at the image above it would appear that added extra foam into the seat base to fill the gap when fitting the RS2 rear bench
