They should, but take measurements on the seat rails on your 89 and on the 96. If they match (and I don't see why they wouldn't), the seats will fit.

I have B3 seats in my B4 - they are completely interchangeable - especially in Europe where there isn't the stupid automatic seatbelt

Good deal! Do it. I heard there are problems with the door panels, though, if you are doing those.
