Default Other model's seats which fit A4??

Well, I don't like leather seats, and I know swapping is a possibility, I would prefer to keep my stock seats. So, I have a few options.

A) Find a stock set of front/rear cloth seats (black)
B) Aftermarket (recaro/sparco/ect...) front seats and brackets.
C) Find another type car which more commonly has cloth seats that will fit!

I'm leaning towards option C), since it may end up being cheaper than A) or B). So, my question is...what other car's seats will fit our A4?

I'm thinking in the range of VW/other Audi models (A3?). Does anyone have any insight into it?

Thanks in advance!

Default A4's came with cloth seats, albeit not many of them

I'm sure you could find someone who might want to trade. Otherwise, Recaro's will fit with the correct brakets. Some VW seats may as well, most likely Jetta seats

Default The leather is just a seat cover...

Although it would be labor intensive, swap out the leather seat covers for cloth ones - and keep your stock seats.

Swapping seats with other cars or going for aftermarket will throw Airbag codes and light, no?

Default Well...Im aware of the airbag light, but a resistor should solve that.

I just want to have cloth seats, and am just looking at other options.

I just didn't know if seats from VW models (like the Jetta or GTI/R32) or other Audi models (A3, TT) would fit our cars.

It just opens up more options, but I may just have to find someone to reupholster my seats, and buy new ones to keep the car stock.
