All Lister and 4KQ Owners. Help Needed! 4Kq Seats + 4000/TT ??'s

[Chris Dyer]

I'm guessing that those newer parts would either a) not fit or b) cost more 
than your car is worth.  No, really.

I'd find some good seats from a bone yard, and maybe those nifty Recaros 
from late '80's Jetta GLIs.  Then get them 
re-skinned/upholstered/Alcantara'ed.  You'd have great, "new" seats that 
didn't cost much.

As for steering wheel, if you don't like any OEM Audi stuff of your car's 
vintage, go for aftermarket, like Momo.  I think for around $150 or so you 
can get a great wheel.  I'm not sure if new wheels from s4/TT's n' such 
would work--they are equipped to handle air bags--tho maybe that makes no 
difference.
