Re: Fitting Golf 5 GTI Seats in a Polo 9N3
I would imagine you will need to adapt the front seat mounting rails to go into the 9N3. Rear seats will more than likely also need modification to fit.
I think you need to move latches around a bit.

Re: Fitting Golf 5 GTI Seats in a Polo 9N3
I've seen people add the MK5 seats to MK2's and Polos, whats actually involved I couldn't tell you as I've never done it.
Are you going to be modifying and welding the seat frames yourself?

I think MK4 Recaros will look much nicer in your Polo and the fitment should be easier than the MK5's
