TT Style Aluminium Pedals

Post by vwdan »

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... &rd=1&rd=1

Just saw these on eBay. Seem to be going fairly cheap!

Didnt actually realise they were a genuine vw product! lol

Are they fairly easy to fit? Sounds an odd question but on some cars they are a lot easier to fit pedals than others.

Cheers

Brake and clutch are a straight swap, the accelerator pedal is a bit bigger and requires some glueing. As it says in the listing it's a 10min job

Hope that helps,

Yeah thats cool. I saw in the listing its a 10 minute job. Seems fairly straightforward and easy to do. The listing says ON SOME LUPO'S, AUDI TT's AND MARK 4 GOLFS THE ACCELLERATER PEDAL MAY NEED TO BE BONDED OR SUPER-GLUED ON

It doesnt say anything about it needing glue on a Polo. Excuse my ignorance here. I would guess like you say it does due to it being bigger.

Cheers for your help!!

The R32 ones are quite swish

Just out of interest how do they fit on? Im sure I read somewhere that they go over your existing pedals??

You have to take your pedals off first, the accelerator just clips off, the other 2 will be a bit more difficult. Once you get them off, get the TT pedals in some nice hot water so the rubber stretches a bit, then try and put them on using the outlines as guidelines. For the accelerator use either bonding glue or blue-tak.

cool. blue-tak sounds a better idea. if I sell it then I would wanna put it back to standard fairly easily!!
