Clean your room before you criticise the world.
The seat in my little Jetta car is beat sucks to ride in lol. So what aftermarket seat do you guys like? Ok I'm talking a nice cush ride. And my car is an 02 alh tdi VW Jetta. I was thinking a sparco or corbeu (idk how to spell it).

Keep your mind like an umbrella, it only works if its open... Continually learning.
Suspension seats are supposed to be comfortable. If you really want a cushy seat, look at grandparent or luxury cars. Those will be soft and cushy.

Its a jetta, ain't nothin gonna fix that thing anyways. Have no clue what would even interchange, but with a drill, a welder, and $$$ you can make anything fit. BTW this is NOT a VW forum so expect stupid, useless answers LOL.

I wonder if seats from a Beetle, or a Tiguan would fit, might be more comfortable, but from what I recall VW never had comfortable seats in anything to begin with so you may have to do some engineering to use a different automaker's seats possibly.

I found Volvo S60 seats. Seem pretty plush. And a friend of mine runs a Volvo shop. So Im curious what It would take to swap em. Idk if I do swap em out is that something you guys wanna see?

Yes you are correct vw and Audi never had comfy seats. And I know this isn't a VW forum but it's my home!!!

I've never found anything more comfortable than the seats in my '00 Cherokee.
