Fitting Golf R32 pedals to MK6 Polo...
Hello again everyone, some good news about my car today but I'll post that later...
Seeing as my little accident is gonna put back my new car by around 12 months (only to get the new reg) I've finally decided to put some little personal touches to my car Being me they have to be original VW parts
The first mod I've fallen for is the Golf R32 pedals, does anyone know if these fit the Polo without any cutting to the actual (attached) pedals. Looking at the pic in the mod forum it looks like the R32 pedals ARE attached to a MK6 Polo. Has anyone carried out this mod? Or do you know anyone I could speak to about it?
Cheers
Neil

No probs.
As far as I know the LHD acc. cover fits straight over, with no gluing or cutting so can be removed without any hassle.
When I ordered mine, few months ago, I ordered RHD everything.
Nobody had done it on a Polo, so I didn't know it wouldn't fit.
Mine's siliconed on, can get it off easy though if I wanted to.
When I've run out of mods to do I'll order a LHD one to replace it.
Hope this helps.

Pedals

Art.-Nr. 8N1 064 200
I really want some for my polo but want them to be removable if sell the car etc...
Also, worried that they would be slippery in the wet. Are they?/
Also, anyone got a price????

Re: Pedals
Yeah, I had noticed they offer a TT pedal kit in Germany for the new Polo, unfortunately the part no. does not pass through on the CAG system so are unavailiable to order over heretdisport wrote:Are these the pedals??

Well, from what I have gathered the RHD accelerator pedal needs glueing but the LHD can fit straight on. Which is why i'm ordering my R32 set tomorrow Total cost to me £35.07 About £20 more than TT ones but worth the extra premium looking at them.
What I find annoying about my pedals is I always get squeaking on my shoes There shouldn't be too much grip loss both R32 and TT pedals have rubber 'grips' in them. LHD R32 pedal is gonna be a Back order part so i'll have to wait five days before I can see them on my car
Yeh they aren't too bad, just a bit less grip than standard in the wet!
I got mine from Germany because they are cheaper! But yours probably work out about the same price with your discount
Anyway, will look wicked when on. I love mine.
Get a bit scratched up with dried mud and stones on ya shoes, but at that price u can replace them every now and then!
Not the best pic, but there you go

Well, fitted the pads today
Decided to go for the TT ones in the end because I wanted ones that looked nice and not sporty, really finishes off the interior though
I ordered the LHD accelerator pad in the end, fits 'snug' but it did come of on the way home so I'm gonna stick an adhesive pad on it so I wont damage the actual accelerator pedal when I come to take it off selling time
I have pics but they are on a disposable camera so they'll be up soon.
