I used a guy up here - he advertised his service in the classifieds of the local paper.

He turned up in a shit-heap of a Transit with some big gas bottles in the back, and long, long hoses. Took minutes to get set up and did a shit-hot job.

This guy was opposite my workshop a few years ago now and used to do mobile. I presume he's still there.
Worth a call, nice bloke named Dave 01268 690200 B & D Holdings in Canvey.
If not he may know someone else

best bet is to just fabricate a set of mk5 runners so they bolt on to the seats, incase either the runners snap or the seat's break, pretty simple to do
