    They are expensive so your not likely to find them sitting in a junkyard.

    I'm in the same boat. I've been looking for a set for at least a year. The only time I was close to getting a set was when a local junk yard was selling a wrecked B6 S4. Unfortunately, the junk yard manager sold the car as is before coming back to me with the seats.

    Re: is there no place to get s4 seats?

    It's really a "being in the right place at the right time" kind of thing. It helps to do a little sleuthing around. I got mine from a auto dismantler up in Canada. A fellow AZer backed out on purchasing an S4 rear bumper from them and posted up that the bumper was available. I contacted the seller and on a hunch, I asked if he had the seats to go along with the bumper. Turns out he did and I made a deal for both the bumper and the seats. It was a big hurdle to arrange shipping, which I did through Roadway Express. I also had to get them cleared through US Customs which was another PITA. The whole process took almost 2 months, but in the end, it was well worth all the trouble!

    Enjoy!

    Re: is there no place to get s4 seats?

    i've always wanted those seats...nothing beats OEM quality, fit and finish.

    just a quick question though...could you share how much you paid? i'd imagine at least 2k for the whole set :(

    Re: is there no place to get s4 seats?

    All said and done, approx. $1,200 for the seats and $800 freight and duties. $1,500 to $2,500 seems to be the range.

    derleicaman, you got a sweet deal.
    when I was hunting for the seats, I offered him 2000 alone for the front and he said no, it's too low

    Re: is there no place to get s4 seats?

    Went back and looked at my emails and I got them for $1800 front and rear. That was about 2 years ago, so my memory is for shit. The shipping was correct.

    Do a google search for audi auto dismantlers and then either call or email them. I'd also look on ebay for S4 parts. Ask questions - you never know what you'll find!

    You could always get the Recaro Style which, I believe, is about the same seat.

    not worth it man, cheaper to send ur seats to an upholstery place and have them form the seat to ur body in a better material for much less.
