The Golf Mk5 (2003 to 2009) is the generation that includes the GTI with 200bhp and the R32 with four-wheel drive: both popular track day cars. OMP’s HC838-Golf-Mk5 frame is made for the Mk5 floor specifically. The Mk5 does not share its seat mounting points with the Mk4, so the Mk4 frame (HC780-Golf-Mk4) does not fit this car.
Steel construction, powder-coated black. Drops into the factory floor mounting points without drilling. Both bolt patterns: 345mm x 271mm and 405mm x 290mm, covering OMP, Sparco, Recaro, and Corbeau base-mount seats.
Sold as a single. For driver and passenger seats, order two. Available in RHD driver side and RHD passenger side.
When ordering, confirm which seat you are fitting so we can verify the bracket between the frame and the seat. No bolts supplied.
Will I fit in this seat?
Send us your height and waist size and we will confirm the fit. how a seat actually feels to sit in is a different question, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so call us and we will give you the honest answer.
What do I need to fit it to my car?
The car-specific frame for your vehicle, plus a sliding runner if you want fore-and-aft adjustment. Our guide on base mount versus side mount walks through the whole stack, and tell us your car and we will quote the full kit.
How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike. We keep the ranges on display in the showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.
