I need to replace the seats in my car at some point (person who sold them to me put in some crappy seats from a different 306, and the driver's seat occasionally just moves suddenly backwards...) and before I drop 400€ on a set of original GTI ph3 seats, I just wanted to ask - are they worth it? I've read that the best seats are the ph1 S16 ones, is there that big of a difference? They are getting hard to find now, especially in Spain.

Mate for 400 euros I'll buy a set here and drive them to you! Ph1s are the best ;-)

If you can find a good condition Ph1 S16 interior, I might just take out up on that. Not sure if there would be any issue with LHD/RHD, though.

Ph.1 seats are really nice, but it is difficult to find a set where the larger bolsters haven't started to collapse and lose their support.

The phase 1's are certainly more supportive but I don't think they have the airbags in them. I'm sure you can find them for around £2-250 if you wait for them.

I'm sure you'll find a whole car for not much more.

but as mentioned, the seat height adjustment will not be on the correct side, you would be better searching other european countries or clubs to find some direct fit seats.

My crap 306 seats actually have no airbags... didn't exactly buy the car from the best dealer.

I'll take a look, it's hard to find cheap cars here though. Thanks!
