I vote for OE stuff.

No bolting on, simply (well, normally) slip them on and enjoy.

Look here, but do check which ones you're ordering (LHD/RHD):

Thanks Alex, I should look a bit harder at the older posts before asking about basic mods.

Nah,

This is the purpose of the forum, dubheads helping eachother out.

Just to be sure; check which pedals (RHD/LHD) fit your car (which, I presume is RHD *the car* - this doesn't necessarily mean you need RHD pedals too - it's confusing!).

I agree bout the confusion.

I've read loads of posts from different places on this subject and still haven't really got an answer for easy fit pedals on a RHD Polo.

Like the look of the R32 ones but it seems the accelerator pedal rubber dosen't fit properly, you have to glue it on.

The 25th Anniversary pedals look good to, but I haven't found a post from someone that's put them on a Polo.

Do LHD Polos have a different size accelerator pedal :?:

Are Golf & Polo pedals the same size :?:

What I *think* the problem is, is that the RHD accelerator pedal is smaller than the LHD pedal, since there's less room on the right side.

So getting a LHD pedal cover would mean it's too big for RHD cars.

Does this sound familiar?

Perhaps the UK-Mk4 boys know something, or even the Lupo lads? Given that the Lupo GTI has TT style pedals as well, the could be a straight swap on RHD polo's.

You should _definitely_ get some sort of confirmation on this though, and if you do know the definitive answer, post it in the Pedal topic in the DIY section.
