Our new acquisition isn't poorly equipped (it has SH and PDC).
However, it lacks a driver's seat height adjustment.
I would like to upgrade these.
What is needed for a 3-door car?
Does anyone have some data with numbers handy?
Unfortunately, our search function didn't turn up any results.
Sure, here's the translation:
'Thank you in advance.'
Best regards, Georg.

I removed the lifting mechanism from the passenger seat of my Ibiza to save weight, and for that, I needed...
a) a non-adjustable console.
b) the appropriate console cover (both purchased privately).
If it's not already there, could you possibly add the drawer later? As far as I know, the "lift" console trim already has the recess for the drawer.
It's best to inquire about the part numbers with MJ (manufacturer identification) and color codes from VAG (Volkswagen Group), but be prepared, as the prices might be quite high. The cost of new parts for this repair is likely to be around €300-€400 per seat.
Alternative: Buy used seats with a built-in lift mechanism, and then adapt the console(s) and seat drawer(s) from those seats to fit in your Polo. Gruß Ulf

I looked around online.
There are also plenty of used options available, some cheaper, some more expensive.
Does the seat absolutely have to be from a 3-door model (because of the folding mechanism)?
Are the consoles the same for 3-door and 5-door models?
That's why I also asked for the part numbers.
Sure, here's the translation:
'Thank you in advance.'

Micha,
under the number: 6R3 881 105 G (seat frame, 2-door, left side)
I can only find seats for Audi A1 online.
I can't distinguish between different types of seating arrangements just from pictures.
'However, the seat cushion and the backrest are different from those in the 9N3.'
Stimmt die o.g. Number?
Thank you for your efforts.
