Hi all,

As there’s nothing available for RHD cars in terms of a dead pedal footrest, I’ve been speaking to a fabricator and he’s advised he can offer the following attached product below for £22 delivered. Just gauging interest! Let me know if you’d like one.

Obviously it’ll say RS3 like the one below.

How would it be fastened to what’s there already? Potentially interested!

I’ve used double sided tape in the past and it’s been absolutely fine. Or just use gorilla glue, that also works fine!

Doesn’t look very ‘OEM’ to me

It’s half and half I think, I’m not 100% sure whether I’d stick with it but it’s worth a try as it could enhance the pedal box quite a lot to match the finish on the pedals.

It needs to be of a brushed effect and not high chrome / stainless to tie in.

Just happened to see the chap post about these on FB -

"Hey! Thanks for the interest I will have some available in approximately 7 days they are precision laser cut stainless steel with a brushed finish supplied with double sided tape."

Sound like good quality.

The ones i fitted were made by a lad on a golf GTI forum i used when i had them. He made two sorts,one stick on like this the other type was fitted by drilling & fixing with stainless steel hex screws/bolts?. I fitted mine this way, easy enough to remove the foot rest to do & once fitted never came off.

That Gorilla glue is dangerous stuff, don't put to much on as it expands !!

Would suggest Gorilla tape, then its going nowhere.

How’s this going to work when you’ve got final numbers... are we to transfer yourself the £22 and pass on postage address etc? Do you have an idea when the first so many will be ready to go? cheers
 
How about we all group buy some of these instead...? :scared2:

Hi,
Where in Facebook please? Would like to ask him about doing it for 8P.
Cheers.
 
Hi all thanks for all the interest. I’m the chap that’s making these..... If anyone would like one I will be adding them to my website in the next day or so ready for pre orders

They come with double sided foam tape which is very secure but can also be removed without damage.

I have been designing and making items like this for a few years now and pride myself on quality at a fair price.

Any questions just ask

Cheers
Kev

Nice one mate... pop a link up when you’re sorted with them and off we go :racer:
 
Its a pity that this cover by OSIR couldn't be replicated, very OEM and had it on my G7R, but unfortunately doesn't quite fit the RS. I still have it and its for sale, fits the S3 !!! (classifieds)

Now that’s a shame, I like that a lot.

Do you have any pictures of one fitted to a car. Would love to see a before and after. Due to so many people interested in this thread alone would you be willing to sort out a group buy?

............these ones do look the best but they are very expensive if i remember corectley?.
 
I'm glad that some R.H.D models now come with the alloy cluth/ dead pedal rest as standard. My SQ5 has it & the new RS4 also comes with one.
