It wasn't uncommon for folks to swap interiors from a Corrado or Scirroco and install them in a cabby which could explain the heated seats and not a Mcode for them on the Build sticker. This could be why they look a wee bit off center as I know that the seat back on those had to be modified a wee bit to fit.

Used on the later Rivage models.
Also on the late Corrado as they shared the same material interior.
Leather for the Rivage was optional extra. However they were standard on the Green Rivage edition.
Also remember that VW were installing heated seats for the North American Market.
Only the Rivage model was fitted with heated seats from factory here in the UK Cabriolet wise.

Rivage’s and sportline came in production around late 89 & last registered I believe is L, M plate.
Power windows power tops etc I’ve seen on G plate cars it depends on when it was built and not registered.
You have to remember that VW we’re getting ready to finish production of the MK1 Cabby in favour of the MK3.
So it’s not uncommon to see these on that year car.
Back in the day there was a lot of UK army guys over in Germany and they could spec their cars to taste some bringing them back to the UK on return.
Also leather seat wise some folks have dyed the original beige seats to black out of a Rivage.
There’s a thread on here how to add rear head rests too.
The problem with old cars you never really know what the previous owner has done,

The shape of of the seats is correct (in cloth) and maybe someone had them re-covered in leather and added the rear head restraints. But it is still an 89 with a power roof? Confused!!
