If you are talking about the metal foot rest plate then it has to be drill and screw fit.

If you are too lazy or don't know how to drill and screw fit it, then should you even be driving let alone driving a GTI?

For the badges check this thread out.

As for the footrest I got mine from a guy on the forum, proper good quality and he also does loads of different designs. Oh and he also makes the little inserts for the seat height adjuster handle. The footrest is a drill and screw job though.

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=139650.0

If you take a look at the link, mine are exactly the same as the ones in Hurdy’s post, about 4 down. The guys name on the forum is Gulfstream drop him a PM and he will sort you out with a set for a good price.

As for the whole drill and screw v stick on, I guess if you have the DSG like me your foot will be resting on the plate a lot more than in a manual, so with a stick on it is more prone to coming off.
