You can try ebay UK, but you might be hard pressed to find a seller who will ship something like seats over here.

Are they compatible with the heated Recaro system we have here?

In all likelihood the seats are slightly different based on a different set of crash standards as far as headrests, air bags, etc. Not sure who has the higher standards, Europe or the United States.

Regardless of standards, the airbags are likely incompatible with our SRS system.

They sure do, also you would likely have to modify the seat rails. I doubt the mk8 floor pan is the same as the mk7
Oh yeah that could be the case. They’re so nice and it sucks if we can find a way to make them work. I’m happy with the recaros it came with but wouldn’t mind an upgrade.
