Well, I finally did it. I now have a set of Tropy Recaro seats in my CGT. They came out of 2 Jetta GLIs from 1989, both are passenger seats as the drivers ones were all shot. These have to be the best seats I've ever had the pleasure of sitting in. Not only are they very supportave and highly bolstered, they are comfey. It was a 9.5 hour drive back from NY (where I got the seats and had them installed), my back left perfect and I wasn't that tired. Plus the grey & black 2-tone seats look oh so sweet in a black CGT. Check out a couple of pics:

Now for the question, the drivers seat eletric system for raising & lowering isn't working. Which is a more common failure, the switch or the motor? Thoughts on how to troubleshoot?
