Please dont, if yours are ok keep it original or source an original set, mk3 3i's are thin on the ground these days and you would be ruining it, purely my opinion of course, its your car to do as you please with

I agree, if its all original don't change it, as said, there are very few left now, these are the cars I had in my youth!

the closest you'd find as an almost direct fit would be a set of half leather recaros from a mk4 cabriolet. you could always just get the centres done if you really want full leather. Make sure you keep the original interior for when you come to sell it though, as it will be worth way more if original.
