SW Motorsports VW Golf MK7 Direct Fit Subframe

The SW Motorsports VW Golf MK7 Direct Fit Subframe is a steel seat base for the right-hand drive VW Golf Mk7. It bolts straight to the car’s factory seat mounting holes, so the floor needs no drilling or fabrication. SW make one part that suits either side, and it is priced per side, so a pair of seats needs two.

This is the layer between the floor and your seat. Side mounts or a slider kit bolt to it and the seat goes on those, and SW pre-drill it for most popular slider kits. They say it takes wide and tall bucket seats as well as smaller ones. It is 4mm mild steel with a textured black powder coat.

You get one base per side. Part number SW-SM-0079. SW use the same part on the VW Golf Mk6, Audi TT Mk2 and Audi A3/S3 8P. Side mounts, sliders, mounting bolts and harness eye bolts are not included, so add those to the order if you do not already have them.

Which other cars do SW make frames for, and what should I add to this one?
Our guide to every SW Motorsport seat frame lists them by car, and covers side mounts, sliders and the seats we would start with.

Does this same frame fit other models?
Yes, the same frame fits the Audi A3/S3 8P, VW Golf Mk6, Audi TT Mk2, Audi A3 8P, Audi S3 8P, VW Golf GTI Mk6, VW Golf R Mk6, VW Golf GTI Mk7, VW Golf R Mk7, Audi TT-S Mk2, Audi TT-RS Mk2, Audi RS3 8P, VW Golf GTD Mk6, VW Golf GTD Mk7, VW Golf GTI Clubsport Mk7 and VW Golf GTI Performance Mk7.

Have you written anything useful for my car?
Yes: Customer Question: How Do I Fit Sparco Sprint Bucket Seats In My VW Golf Mk7 and Customer Spotlight: VW Golf R Drag Race Car. They are written around the same model, so check the generation matches your car.

Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Toyota Yaris GR. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.

Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.

Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on SW frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.

Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
