How to upgrade your seats in 2 mins AND get paid for it
Do you have integrated booster seats in your 850/V70? I'm coming round to thinking they're a rarity? I understand these were a 'Family pack' option, but fitted standard to others. I would love to get a set for my 1999 P1 V70 and I'm having real trouble finding them, which brings me to believe they're not exactly sweeping the nation.

The pic shows the later seats - 2009 modle I think, but you get the idea.

A freind has them in his Mk2 V70, sadly his don't fit my car, and my car has leather in Dk grey/Blackish-Charcoal, his is cream.
Removing these is an upgrade in comfort (if you don't have kids) so I'd hoped someone would jump to have a standard set like mine for a swap. Some of you may have seen my numerous requests for a set in the wanted section. But I had no takers. Thing is, I'm thinking, am I asking for something extremely rare?

To save confusion, I'm not meaning a centre arm-rest type seat thus:

It's very good, but I already have this. What I'm afer fits in addition to the centre booster seat, left and right.

I'll reiterate my offer, my rear seats are in very good cond. without the integrated option - they're actually far more comfortable than the integrated booster type. So, if you've not any smaller kids, do a quick swap with me, and put £150 of corresponding drinks vouchers into your pocket, I'll collect too, thus, you'll get to see my seats before agreeing to me taking yours.

But back to my question,I've tried Ebay for months, breakers, and thsi parish too. Not even a nibble, am I jsut unlucky, or is what I want rare? I can get a seven seat conversion, no issue, only it won't fit a CNG, (fuel tank is there) but.... these damned things?? Bribery has failed too. Do i give up?

Is this for a p1 or p2

[CNGBiFuel]

1999 V70 P1. You're in Shildon, I'll come Sunday.

[Jules_V70R]

What ? Ripsta has em ?

Me too please in cream !!!!!!!

Sunday is tought for me but sometime next week ?

And I'm not joking !

[CNGBiFuel]

Not joking, nor am I... Next week is fine. Cream won't do, sorry.
I'm not worreid where they come from.

My offer: I will leave you with matching seats. If I can't do this I won't want yours - [if you see my logic]. To be clear, mine are Dk grey/ Charcoal and appear black (until you look twice, i've not seen actual proper, proper balck seats in a V70) , and I have a 1999 P1 V70. I think these were fitted to 850s too. The >2000 V70 P2 seats won't fit. I only need to swap the swabs, thus not the seat backs.

So, has soemone got Charcoal full leatehr, ie what I'm after? I'm in Dunstable (LU6 near Luton). 120 miles any direction is fine.

But my question, I'm getting no takers, are these rare? Or have you all got kids...

[CNGBiFuel]

Just spotted my error. I meant to say we will swap the 'squab', not 'swab', dear oh dear... anyway the bit you sit on.

This won't help much I'm afraid but last year I spotted a 2000 end of line V70 XT variant with the black leather booster seats for sale as a running car.
The very last ones had load of extras thrown at them, badged XT, mainly to use up parts and also to tempt buyers to take on the then older models.
I'm thinking you may find what your after in end of line 2000 V70's being broken.
I'll keep my eyes peeled.
Cheers.

This won't help much

Far from it, at least I know wherre to start looking, my offer seems to be getting no takers, so either my offer is poor, or this option is rarer thatn i tought. It had not occurred to me to look at XT variants. Thanks - not sure why, but I'm like a dog with a bone on thsi one.

And enter exactly what you are looking for, you may be lucky. And if it doesn't work right away, keep at it, alternate weeks.
Dog with a bone? Sounds like me when i'm after an upgrade!
Really hope it works out for you.

I think I've answered my own question, these things are scare.

Now, partsgateway.co.uk I've done, but Breakersyard.co.uk, I've not heard of. I'll give it a go. Thanks for the info.
