Been thinking of a way to do this for awhile just got the bright idea to search for it on google. Has anyone on here done this?

Did mk2 golfs have folding seats? I have never really looked around in one before..

Yes, but not the split type, it was a one piece seat back.  I believe the point of the conversion is to gain the split feature which to the best of my knowledge was not available on the MK2.

mk2 Golfs and GTIs had 60/40 split rear benches..

mk2 Jettas ALWAYS had a solid, non-folding rear seat..

FWIW, Golf and Jetta seats, and brackets are 100% different..

I have two mark 2 Golfs (1- 2 dr, 1- 4 dr.)in the driveway - not one split rear seat.

my 85 GTI has 60/40 split

my 86 Golf has the same..

come to think of it, my 2dr 85 golf with auto trans and no sunroof had a single piece rear seat, much like a rabbit..

all the rest have been 60/40 splitties..

is the 60/40 more common, or the single piece?

The MK2 Jetta Syncro had the split seats  ;)
