♻ GENUINE VW TRANSPORTER T5 KOMBI REAR BENCH SEAT CATCH LOCK 7H0883389A


Genuine used Volkswagen rear passenger bench seat front locking mechanism / seat catch, designed to secure the removable rear bench seat into its mounting system.


Ideal replacement for a damaged, seized, worn or missing original seat locking mechanism.


Part Number: 7H0883389A

OE Number: 7H0 883 389 A

Later / Related Number: 7H0883389D

Part Type: Rear Bench Seat Locking Mechanism / Seat Catch

Position: Front Locking Position of Rear Bench Seat

Application: Rear Passenger Bench Seating System

Manufacturer: Volkswagen Genuine OE

Condition: Used


Compatibility


Suitable for selected:


Volkswagen Transporter T5 – 2003–2009

Volkswagen Transporter T5.1 – configuration dependent

Volkswagen Caravelle T5 / T5.1 – selected seating configurations

VW Transporter Kombi – selected rear bench seats


The mechanism appears in Volkswagen factory catalogues for various rear passenger seating arrangements, including 2-seater and 3-seater bench-seat frames, depending on model and seating specification.


T6 Compatibility


⚠️ T6 fitment should not be assumed from the 7H0 part number alone.


Some specialist sellers cross-reference this mechanism with T5/T6 applications, but the VW catalogue evidence for 7H0883389A itself is strongest for the T5-generation seating system.


For a T6, compare the original locking mechanism, seat frame and mounting arrangement before ordering.


Technical Information


This component forms part of the mechanical locking system that secures the removable rear passenger bench seat.


7H0883389A = Front locking mechanism


The applicable bench-seat arrangement normally uses 2 front locking mechanisms.


A corresponding rear locking mechanism is also used on applicable seat frames, but it carries a different part number.


The locking mechanism engages with the vehicle’s seat mounting arrangement and helps hold the rear passenger seat securely in its installed position.


Rear Seat Locking System


VW Transporter passenger seating systems can use several different locking mechanisms depending on:


• Double or triple bench seat

• Seat row / position

• Kombi or passenger specification

• Caravelle seating configuration

• Model year

• Seat frame design

• Factory PR codes


For this reason, matching the OE number and physical design is important.


Common Reasons for Replacement


• Seat catch no longer locking correctly

• Mechanism seized or difficult to operate

• Excessive movement in the seat mounting

• Catch damaged during seat removal

• Missing mechanism from replacement bench seat

• Broken or worn internal locking components

• Restoring a Kombi / passenger rear seat installation


Important Safety Information


⚠️ This component forms part of the passenger seat retention system.


The locking mechanism must engage and release correctly and the seat must be securely retained before the vehicle is used.


Do not use a damaged, excessively worn or incorrectly fitted seat locking mechanism.


Installation


Direct mechanical replacement where 7H0883389A is originally fitted.


Correct factory mounting hardware should be used and the mechanism must be securely attached to the seat frame.


After installation, check that the seat:


• Locates correctly into its mounts

• Locks securely

• Cannot lift or move excessively

• Releases correctly when required


Programming / Coding


No programming or electronic coding required.


This is a mechanical rear seat locking component.


Important Compatibility Note


⚠️ Please match part number 7H0883389A with your original part before ordering.


Transporter rear seating arrangements vary considerably between Kombi, Shuttle, Caravelle and converted vehicles.


Compatibility depends on the actual seat frame and locking arrangement, not simply whether the vehicle is a T5 or T6.


The 7H0883389A is the FRONT locking mechanism. Do not confuse it with the rear locking mechanism.


Condition


Genuine used Volkswagen part.


May show normal cosmetic marks, surface wear or signs of previous installation consistent with a used mechanical seat component.


Please inspect the listing photographs carefully for the exact condition and items supplied.
