I don't think it is but which parts are you after?
I might have some left over as I'm currently repairing my seats base foam and bolster

Even better the edmundator is selling the correct foam parts in the parts for sale section.
Drop him a pm and he can tell you if he's got what u need

Yes, I have three good seat base foam sections if that's all you need.

What about mk1 golf's? Do these have the same seat base bolster?

I think they're the same, it's just the metal frame that's higher. I'm fairly sure I've seen people take foam from Golf seats to rebuild Scirocco ones.

Just checked on VAGCAT, same part numbers for MK1 Golf and MK2 Scirocco bolsters 841 881 378A and 841 881 377A left and right.

You could also double check with your local VW dealer, there may still be one or two kicking around in the sytem, I bought one back in 2010.

I think the mk2 scirocco has the same seats as fitted to my mk1 golf cabriolet gti so mk2 golf gti seat foam should work.
I asked the same question here. Rubjonny does know a lot about vw's
http://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/forum/index.php ... -seat-foam

I've took the foam out of the mk2 golf seat but not had chance to really look closely at my seats but they do look similar.
Mine came out of a 1988 mk2 golf gti, the foam has the date on the bottom!
One thing I did notice is the bottom bit is just one peice, both side bolsters and seat base, not sure if that's right?

Yes, the later Golfs cabrios has a one piece front seat base, the part number should be191881375D. 191 is a code for identifing a MK2 Golf.
