B7 foot pedals on my B8 ... Will they fit ???

Why do I need the LHD Accelerator cover for a RHD car ??
This may sound stupid, I know, but the RHD won't fit the b8, I did some research re this and found the b7 LHD one was/is a perfect fit.
If you use the part number's in A4 Aluminium Pedal thread you will get this....


Not the greatest of pics, but you get the idea mate.

Another stupid question but why didn't the B7 RHD peddle not fit and the LHD one did ??

Pedal's are a different shape, it's as if the RHD b7 one is the wrong way round. I bought the RHD b7 set from Huntington Audi, thinking it would fit the b8, as per audienthusiast info, only to find the accelerator pedal was way off. Did a bit more research and found, think it was audizine, although not 100%, and found that the b7 LHD was a perfect match.
Hope this answer's any confusion.

Thanks JG51 you are being a huge help ... so the next question ... the set I have linked above will foot rest, clutch and break fit ok and then I just need to buy the LHD RS4 acc pedal ? Or do I need to buy them individually and scrub the B7 set ??

That's the set I bought, but without the foot rest. I don't know if the foot rest will fit mate, sorry. I then bought the LHD accelerator pedal cover, part no. 8E1 721 891. £38.70 inc vat. This had to be special order from my local Audi dealer, funny thing was, I had this full conversation with him and he told me it wouldn't fit, wrong again Audi!!!!
Anthony566, there maybe a cheaper way of doing this mod, possibly RS5, not sure.
I'm also looking into getting foot rest, so if I get any info I'll let you know or if you get any success drop me a link.
If you do decide to go down the route I did, you will be left with a RHD b7 accelerator pedal cover that I'm quite sure you can give away to a b7 owner.
Cheers JG

Anthony 566, maybe you should double check that Audi haven't changed the shape of the pedal's on the facelift b8 model, just noticed yours is a 2013.
