Facelift interior into pre-facelift car 5-door

[westiej]

I'm looking at purchasing an '05 5 door A3, but the front seats have a few stains. I've seen an '09 set of seats in good condition, but want to check that the post facelift seats will fit in the earlier model.

Any guesses? Thanks

Yes they fit, just make sure it has the same wiring systems or you may have to swap across, usually its fine, but some may/may not be heated, may/may not have seat belt warning, etc.

Hi I have done the same thing with my interior all I had to do is change the airbag plugs over but a easy job to do but make sure you disconnect the battery before unplugging the airbag as Iwas told if you don't the airbag light may come on when your done.
