is it possible to fit (easily) the MK4 Golf Gti seats (Recaro) into the polo (Mk5)...

that's for the front seats and the back ones also...

'cause there's a blue/black set available here and I might be interested if it's not to difficult to fit them...

Shouldn't be too difficult, just have a look at the subframes and see how they differ. you may be able to fit them by using a complete Golf subframe or (more likely) customising your exsisting one.

ok well the price for the full interior is way to expensive...I might be interested in a MK3 Golf interior..the EDITION one...I think they are recaro seats also...

but it's a 5 doors golf...so will the seats fit my 3 doors mk5 polo? :roll:

No, the 3 door seats don't have the folding ability IIRC. But, there's lots of 3-dr sets about too- so wait a bit and get those. The Mk3 seats will bolt straight in anyway, much less work then the Mk4 seats. Which require welding and grinding.

Good luck!

Correct.

Those sets pop up once in a while- the full color concept interior will sell for around €1000. Bolts straight in!

The door cards are different from the Mk4 and 5 though, but they can be made to fit.
