VW Golf mk7 Bucket Seat Guide

The VW Golf mk7...

The VW Golf MK7 (2012-2020) is a stunning evolution of an iconic hot hatch. Each and every VW Golf has been popular in the tuning community and the Mk7 is no exception. Once you start using your VW Golf mk7 for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support. 

On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner. 

None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand. 

We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our VW Golf mk7 guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.

Recommended brackets: (Bucket seats)
We recommend using the M2 and Cobra fitting frames to install a range of bucket seats. If you have modified your original floor plan then we recommend the Sparco side mounts and sliding runner.  The Cobra subframes listed will only fit with seats of the same brand. If the subframes are used with seats made by other manufacturers correct fitment can not be guaranteed.
