Wish I had teh sport seats like Jay4, standard ones are OK, but sport would've been wicked.

Initially Sport seats very uncomfortable (lower back pains), but now are GREAT!

Help in positive I.D of Sport/non?

the sport vs. non-sport concern was not on my mind at all when i bought my 98.5 used, but the a4.org discussions have been interesting on the topic.

i am now 100 miles from the nearest audi dealer, so a simple visual comparison isn't isn't routine, and though i've looked at a good a4.org archive photo of sports seats and think they match mine, i'm still not positive.
any tips for positive i.d. of sport or non-sport? "firm" is a relative term, and mine are comfortably firm with some side bolsters; no lumbar support ****;
three stitched sections in bottom and back.

98 A4 didn't, 99.5 A4 does...

(both leather) and the sport seats are way better, even than the regular ones when they were new. And the regular seats lost their support after about 30K miles.
