My cabby is a 1991, so its suggesting mine is that colour! Im sure when I went to VW they told me a different colour name! Will check with them again today ( off work )

Tilting rear seat backs for extra boot space?
Not seen that before - certainly not on my 89 Clipper.

Thats what makes me think the site is a bit plastic. It tells me things I have never heard of and when you talk to people about it they look at you gone out. Do you think its mainly US info?

My rear seats tilt forward, kinda useful for getting more in the back when needed, or getting to stuff in the boot when I have reversed too close to something and cant open the tailgate    guess this is what they are referring to  :dontknow:

on cabbys: lift the boot lid and towards the top left ( near the near side light cluster) is a pull lever, pull that and it will allow you to tilt the rear seats forward. i think…lol give it ago! there might even be one both sides. think its just the left tho lol

check in the boot for your sticker…  with the paint code on LK3A

as for the back seat.. yep it comes down as described above….  open tailgate first and put the knob..  leave tailgate open and look down the right hand side of you upper back seat for the pull bracket.. usually the grab handle has long since dissapered.. but you could make a new one from a large tie wrap

cheers

Mine has that. I read it as the seats have another movement. I

You know you are right - I have got that in mine but I only ever used it when I was taking the seats out.  :redfaced:
Well you live & learn.

Not many hood bags fitted then? you have to release the back seat to fit and locate the hood bag straps

You need to open the boot fully to pull out the plunger so this doesn't add up.

I take your point Tian, but my plunger is one of the items on my list of repairs! So as it stands I can leave the seats either locked or unlocked, hence I am able to open the seats from within the car without opening the boot lid. Needs fixing though, cos I need to remember to lock the seats when leaving the car out and about!!

just registered my cab on there
