what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[Dr.Dash]

Is that for both front blades?
Is the locking mechanism too different from stock? I don't like when they look obviously generic

That is both wiper blades.

Totally understand your dislike of odd aftermarket wipers. These are a direct replacement and come assembled and ready to fit, 1 minute job.

They feel better made and more robust than the originals, and are slightly lower profile than the OEM. HTH

Awesome!
I'll add them to the basket, mine are starting to streak and hop around. Thanks for the heads-up

Looks great!
I was wondering - is there any size difference in the regular rubber and the metal pedal covers? By size I meant width - as in, would it be easier to heel-toe with the metal covers?

Or is it pretty much the same as with the stock pedal covers?

Thanks! Makes the inside look finished now, would be nice to come with them standard.
Anyway, you have to remove the old pedal covers to fit these, they are the same size if not a tiny bit thicker. But unfortunately don't make it easier to heel toe.
To be honest i've found it a little difficult to heel/toe in the FR as the brakes are so sharp the pedal doesn't travel far enough to then use the throttle.

You can get a foot rest to match those pedals too. Excuse the muck.

Can you heel toe a car that kills throttle when bakes are applied? Didn't think so.

Can definitely heel and toe in mine, perhaps only left foot braking is prevented.

I like! Have you got a part number as unfortunately I couldn't find a part number for the RHD foot rest.

Cheers

APR remap allows to heel and toe.

[leonisis]

£26.37 and a couple of quid for delivery in a week ..Instead of waiting a month or more from China.

A replacement USB cable finally arrived since the previous owner missplaced it.
Now I can listen to my music without having to fight with spotify.

Also, these super-cheap suckers came in the mail at the same time.

Along with a few tweaks to the individual profile and the new(for me) found option to switch from S to D moving down the shifter have completely transformed the driving experience.

Now I understand why people have the engine in Cupra mode all the time, even on start-stop traffic

Stuck the rear window wind deflectors on. One of the easiest things I've done to the car. Put it off a year back with people saying the spoiler had to be removed but don't believe the hype. Look good. Don't imagine it's a huge reduction in drag but every little helps.

Picked up the ST today, so until the SC gets picked up on Monday my driveway has a double trouble look to it.

Also took the time to transfer my BlackVue dashcam over.
I must admit the Mystery Blue colour is absolutely stunning and has already attracted a number of comments, I will be hunting for a blue Golf R to park next to though to see if there is much of a difference as I'm pretty sure it is just a sneaky rip-off of Lapiz Blue

Very nice and snap!

Fitted some wind deflectors. I do like the look of them, but get a fair bit of noise at higher speeds, so they might go again!

Good to know, I was looking at getting some but if they are really noisy I won't.
