couple of plastic screws isn't it just unscrew

I removed it to fit this:

It's a bit of a bugger to get off, but it's a few clips. Just wiggle and pull.

sweet thats what i just ordered lol.
looks alright too. i was affraid it my be cheap looking but looks good.

That footrest is sweet. Where do you get them from?
Once the OE one is off, are there screw holes already there for this new one to screw into?
Oh, and in that pic, are they the standard pedal? I only have one of them covers on my accelerator pedal. The brake has a rubber cover, and the clutch has nothing. Just the metal pedal.

I wanted one of them but not with the "R" on it, i emailed him to see if he did or could do one without anything, but i didn't get an answer so i left it, just thought if he cant be bothered to reply i couldn't be bothered to buy one.

yeah id prefer it with out the r i think the A3/S3 hasnt got anything on it.
i asked him a que and he answered pretty quickly too.

 

[james walker]

why without the r.... do you have a cupra r?

looks mint imo

im not into the styling part tbh, much rather spend on handling or performance, but looks a decent mod

 

[Deleted member 20376]

yeah i got a cupra r, but really, im not that bothered tbh either is good to me.

 

[olliep]

where are they from?

 

[Phillc]

this the one

 

[Deleted member 20376]

yup thats the one

 

[speedinsaxo]

I like the 'R'.
You have to drill 3 holes in the plastic. One is where there is a clip that attaches to the body of the car - but if you trim a bit away you can get the nut on easily enough.

A simple but effective mod I think.

 

[speedinsaxo]

Oh, they come in the FR variety also.

Just use self tapping screws into the plastic. No need to remove anything.
I only have two on mine and it's held for about two years with no issues.

Nice find, folks. Thanks. I think I'll have one of those!

BTW: anyone have any ideas re a replacement gearknob for LCs/LCRs (apart from the SEAT Sport versions)?
