The only seats that fit without alteration are caravelle seats or T25 seats.

everything else has to be cut, welded or bolted... or all three

Make sure you have the original VW runners before you buy VW , as it reads like the previous bodger may well have cut them out

nope T4's don't fit without modification.

But if you bought them you would make them fit, I'm sure it's not too difficult

Well being as both our SA's were built with MK2 Golf front seats I'd say yes...but strictly speaking they are a hybrid seat with a Golf backrest and reclining mechanism. The runners are the same as a regular T3:
