A Planted Technology seat bracket for the VW Beetle, Golf, GTI and Jetta on the Mk4 chassis, 1999 to 2005. Part number SB027.
Planted’s own listing, covering four model names because Volkswagen built all of them on the same PQ34 floorpan with the same seat mounting.
We also list it separately against the Jetta Mk4 and the Bora, which is the Jetta under its European name, so owners find a page naming their car.
It reaches further than the title
The Audi A3 8L, the Seat Leon Mk1 and the Skoda Octavia of the same period share this platform. If you have one of those, send us the registration and we will check the fitment, because that is exactly the sort of extra fitment we work out rather than leave to the manufacturer’s list.
The R32 and the GTI
The Mk4 R32 with the narrow angle VR6 and four wheel drive is the one people chase, and values have started climbing.
Side airbags throughout. Handed, so order twice for a pair.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Lexus Planted Technology Frames Updated For 2026, and Customer Car: Subaru Impreza With Corbeau RRS Seats and Planted Technology Brackets. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the VW Beetle/Golf/GTI/Jetta [MK4 Chassis] (1999-2005). 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. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. 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 Planted 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.
