Yes apparently, but the LHD one still needs to be glued on
There are sets on ebay. Or you could just buy from your local dealer

Yeh right hand drive ones doesnt fit properly, left hand drive is a little loose, you'll need to glue it

i bonded the clutch padal in my mk 2 golf (tt pedals) with tiger seal in black. it comes in a tube, the type you put in a sealant gun. its the stuff used to bond on body kits etc. very sticky, and dries slightly rubbery so wont snap off.

I used Araldite, It's the glue where you mix the two parts of it together then spread evenly on both surfaces, works a treat.

wheres the best place to buy these from? i was looking on ebay the other day and a set went for £41! i know you can get them from vagparts for about 7 quid per pedal. are vagparts any good? reliable etc?
how much do they cost from a dealer?

Dealer, you'll probably have to use Audi so more than VAG Parts!
VAG Parts are fine from my experience, either e-mail them or phone them. Make sure you tell them that you're a member of UK-Polos as we get 10% discount.

Yeh vagparts is dirt cheap for them, highly recommended. NEVER go through eBay, people rip you off on there.
I've got them in mine and they look so much better, they really should have been a standard part on the GTi
