I have to do my S5s fuel pump and this gave me a really good understanding of how to get the seats off lmao
So awesome to hear that! Let me know if you succeed!
I’m doing this on my 2010 a5 as a project car awesome video
Awesome man! Good luck!
Great video
Thank you!!
Yoo what song did you use in the end?
Beau boulot 👍👍
Do you need to remove the whole rear seat to get access behind the "sidepanel"? Thinking of changing the rear speakers but is there alot of work get there?
Yeah sadly you have to remove everything to acces it. But if I remember correctly you can also just remove the speakercaps.
Can you explain how you pulled the rear seats out? DOes the back and bottom come out together? Or bottom first then top?
The come out seperately. If I remember correct, we started with the bottom and after that you can acces the top.
Where do you do anything with the airbags?
I just want to remove both seats so i can do a full clean
The seats contain airbags, and since we are removing the seats we need to unplug the airbag connector. It is just a precaution for everyone that you should not play around with airbags.
Great job dude!!!
Thank you!!
Hallo, ik heb een audi tt gekocht zonder elektrische zetels en ben van plan om ze om te wisselen met elektrische zetels. heb je iets speciaals nodig of is het gewoon plug and play?
Heyy, goede keuze! Dat zou eventueel kunnen. Wat je eerst zou moeten controleren is of er onder de stoel een stekker aanwezig is. In mijn geval waren de stoelen elektrisch verstelbaar in de lendensteun, maar verder was alles handmatig. Doordat er al elektronica in de stoel zat was het bij mij plug en play, ik weet helaas niet precies hoe het bij een tt zit maar ik kan me voorstellen dat het gelijk is.
Very nice. Now you need to clean the seats. Your job was not that dificult, more or less plug&play. I’ve made also a retrofit of interior seats from fabric to leather, but I had a lot of blocking points: UK donor car, wrong airbag connector and missing some brackets specific for avant cars... 😂
If you want to have a look I have 2x videos on my channel.
Thanks for watching! Yeah the seats are a bit dirty and worn but i got that sorted. It isnt the hardest job but it requires some knowledge. It makes a huge difference!
Netjes! Weet je of de stoelverwarming altijd in de Recaro’s zitten? Ook als de optie niet op de auto zelf zit zeg maar? Lees wisselende dingen op internet.
Ik weet niet of het er altijd in zit maar zodra de stoelen een groene stekker hebben volgensmij wel. Ik ben ook nog geen recaro stoelen tegen gekomen zonder stoelverwarming. Ik merk wel dat de vraag hiernaar heel groot is, dus ik zal er de komende tijd een filmpje van maken.
@@jtscustomsNL dank je voor je snelle antwoord! Leuk kanaal dus ben zeker benieuwd naar die video. Ik ga morgen kijken bij een S5 zonder de stoelverwarming knoppen en ben benieuwd hoe makkelijk ik het wel verwarmd ga krijgen.
@@stef1833 dankjewel! als je bij een S5 gaat kijken die de originele stoelen heeft zonder stoelverwarmingmodule dan vrees ik dat er in de stoelen zelf ook geen stoelverwarming zit. De oplossing zou dan zijn om stoelen te kopen met stoelverwarming en de module te kopen.
Where does the airbag risk come from? Is it the seats or the side pannels
Its the seat airbags, when handling the airbag connectors it could be possible that some static electricity triggers them. Thats why we first touch some ground.
What size is that star bolt that holds down the seats and tracks?
I believe its a 10 ( in Europe)
How do you pull out the rear seat off the side bearing at 2:13? I can't pull it out it feels like its hitting something.
You can slide it over and pull it out, its a bit tricky but you should be able to pull it out. Good luck!!
🔥🔥
hi, do you remember the weight of those seats by any chance? thanks
No sorry I didnt weigh the seats. But they are a bit lighter then the previous seats
Is the sitting position lower with the new seats?
Yess, you can adjust the seats lower and higher. They go lower then original.
@@jtscustomsNL Cheers
How do you get that cable out of the seat or how do you remove it
The cables where already attached to the seats, I only needed to connect them to the car
how did you removed the wire that opens the back seats?
You dont have to remove the whole wire. There is a mechanism under the back seats where you can just undo the wire
My friend does it matters if the one seat has another serial number barcode than the other?I have a standard coupe 2008 and want to retrofit s line seats from 2011 model but under the seats has some number that are not the same and afraid have problem with cables fuses for example.did you check something specific first before bought them?
I checked if it is from the same model (B8 in my case and about the same year. My car is from 2009 and the seats are from 2007. I dont think differant serial numbers would be a problem.
@@jtscustomsNL ok thanks cause mine is 2008coupe electrical heated…and s line is 2011 and I asked about this barcode and they told me something ecu barcode not same and etc
@@jtscustomsNL mu friend I did the mod.all good wires fuses plug and play.but have airbag on.did I needed to retrofit the seats ecu of mine to the new ones?all functional…if any idea to help
@@user-yb4vi6vj1k did you disconnect the battery before you started working on the car? You can try to read the ECU for fault codes and whipe them
@@jtscustomsNL no I didn’t I saw was all plug and play and thought only the key not to have in the ignition.so it needs laptop to erase…
hi, i plan to change my sline seats for s5 ones. My question is my sline seats are manual like the ones you disassemble to put some electrical ones, you did wiring, how do you make it work? a greeting from Spain. maybe you explain it in your video, but i don't know english
Awesome! I had manual seats to and converted to the electrical seats without any issues. Keep in mind the current seats should have electric back adjustment. And also the S5 are heated, this requires an extra module (i will make a video about this in the future)
@@jtscustomsNL Thank you very much for the answer, it was a great help. one last question, my seats are manual and heated, if you find some electric and heated s5 is only change and ready? without module? and could you tell me the ref number of the seat s5 to search better? my car is a5 sportback sline 204 hp gray daytona and I have it really nice with rotor 20 bumper rs grill s5 and rear diffuser s5 and it would be the icing on the cake those sports seats thank you I hope your prompt response. regards!!
@@jesusitogodoy thats a awesome car and color! If your seats are already heated and electric then it should be plug and play yess, i dont have a number of the seat but try to look for S5 seats that match your model year! Good luck!
@@jtscustomsNL this is great ! You have helped me a lot, you solved my doubts, thank you very much for your help. A greeting from Spain!
@@jtscustomsNL Hey guys, Great video as always. Did you make a video about the added heater module? the reason i ask is.....My 2013 A5 3.0 sline has manual seats (forward & backward and also the back is manual) which i want to upgrade to fully electric heated seats which my 2008 version has. Ive not checked yet to see if the green female socket is in the car for the heated seats option do you know how i can add that etc as the seats i`m looking at are the Sline heated version. Any help is appreciated. Cheers Mark
No es plug and play da fallo de airbag hay algún harnes
Great job! Where did you get them and how much did you paid?
Thanks!! I bought them used from someone in the Netherlands for only 500 euros!
ga je ook een video maken ivm de stoelverwarming aansluiten? ik zit met het zelfde probleem maar tis nogal complicated hahahaha
Dit ben ik nog wel van plan in de toekomst! Moet nog even de spullen bij elkaar zoeken😅 is inderdaad niet heel makkelijk
@@jtscustomsNL klopt, ik heb wel al een kabelboom gevonden alleen daarna heb je ook nog meer bedrading nodig voor naar de climatronic (denk ik). weinig informatie over te vinden had gehoopt dat je er misschien al mee bezig zou zijn hahahah
@@DeadLineBrother nee helaas nog niet helemaal, maar ik zal dit misschien nu wel naar voren trekken om aan te passen. Zodra ik het bij elkaar heb dan zal ik het filmen💪🏻
@@jtscustomsNL super! hopelijk kom je eruit!
hello i have seen s5 is full electric seats was your brown front seats was full electric aswell?
i have my heated seats in a5 2012 and electric is only the back support other adjustments i have to do manually it but my brother is about to sell his a5 2010 and his seats is heated full electric. im wondering if it’s straight plug and play?
Hi, my brown seats were the same as yours manual with electric back adjustment. The new seat are fully electronic adjustable. However for the heating to work you need the module in the dash and the wiring
@@jtscustomsNL mine is heated and my brother heated also. his just full electric thats why i want it . so it’s straight plug and play ?
@@kartumas33 then it would be plug and play 😄
@@jtscustomsNL - hi mate, did you put on your brothers seats and where they plug and play. Does the heating element work all OK?
@@m124nur hi, everything works but the heating does not yet, this will be covered in a future episode!
So the wire going into the rear seats how did u disconnect that ?
There are no electrical wires in the backseat, atleast not in mine, but there is a wire to pull to release the seats. This one is cased in a plastic box wich can be opened and then you can disconnect it
@@jtscustomsNL perfect I appreciate it thanks for getting back to me
can those seats fit in an S6
I dont now exactly but I think they would fit. It is better to get S6/RS6 seats to make sure
Hope you were able to sell the old ones which were in good condition.
I still have them ^^ maybe I will sell them. They are in mint condition!
JTS Customs how much for old interior ???
@@ethanrawls58 where are you from?
JTS Customs I’m from the u.s
I have a white a5 and I liked those seats you took out
Where did you orderd the seats?
I got them used from someone in the netherlands! Got them for really cheap!
@@jtscustomsNL ik ben ook opzoek, hoe heb je dat voor elkaar gekregen?
@@Xanderdegroot hoi Xander, ik heb de hele set op marktplaats gevonden en voor weinig kunnen ophalen. Marktplaats dus een beetje in de gaten houden en kijken of je een setje kan vinden.
@@jtscustomsNL Thank you!, keep up this amazing channel :D
@@Xanderdegroot dankjewel!!
What can happens if you unplug the wires from seats? Even if you unplug the baterry?
Think it is ok if you unplug battery first, if not it may show up a fault/ error code on computer that might not be easy to cancel ???
Working with airbag connections is always tricky as a small load off electricity could trigger the airbagsystem. Worst case the airbags deploy. So always be careful undoing the plugs
And if I unplug battery first for 10-15 mins? There will be danger too?
@@Zohlomg that should be good, make sure to touch some ground before you touch the wires. You should be good then. And dont forget to never start your car or insert the key while the wires are disconnected!
Yea. Thanks for advice! But what do you mean with "touch some ground"?
What year audi do u have
It is from 2009
I like the old one better
How much for the seat
The new ones? Picked it up for 500 euros. The old ones are for sale 😅
How has You replace the middle leather arm rest
Pls i need help
Hello, under the middle arm rest there is a plastic cover that needs to be removed and under that are 2 bolts holding it. Good luck!
Dunno why you would want to install these seats they weigh over 30kg lol I would of got a set of RECARO Sportster CS seats that weigh just over 14Kg would look way better and make your car faster lol
I just kick out the passenger to save weight😅😅 no just kidding, these seats weight less then the previous seats and I didnt install them to save weight. Also I wanted to stick to an OEM look and not go full racecar as this is my daily😅 but thank you for watching!!
@@jtscustomsNL Seriously check out the Recaro Sportster Cs seats they are the best upgrade and in my opinion look more OEM then the factory seats. Weight is the biggest killer of the B8 chassis so anything you can throw away is power at the wheels. I drove my RS5 whiteout the front and rear seats and was a huge performance difference.
@@muckman5509 oh wow! I just checked them out. They really look awesome. Maybe something for the future or for my other cars! Thanks for the tip!
Or you buy an S5 : )
Yeeaaah should have done that🤣🤣 but hey where is the fun in that.
@@jtscustomsNL yes, we have to be working on something 😁
@@dondiablo5583 exactly!
appreciate the hard work but what a doowwwngrad RED LEATHER how cheap does that look? poor audi
I like it though 😅 plus the seats are better as they are sportseats and therefore give better support. Thank you for watching!
