....It all seems a whole lot of effort just for a footrest. What's wrong with the stock plastic footrest? - It's not slippy and it's easier to clean.
It's all about the looks  :cool:

But it's also a dull bit of plastic up against the metal pedals.

To me it's something a bit different that doesn't cost more than a few quid.  :cool:

When I'm motorway driving, that's how my left leg is kinda positioned, which is why I'm not used to having a footrest.

What did you use to stick the footrest to the plastic, Phil?
I still haven't attached mine. I'm waiting for my R-style pedals to arrive  :wink:
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3
