Chuck them in a bucket of boiling hot water that'll soften them up then turn them inside out, put them on the pedal and turn them back in the rite way folding the lip over the edge of the pedal as you go  :wink:

I did mine recently on my mk2. Heated the rubbers with a hairdryer, did the job!!

I never thought of using a hairdryer, probably because I ain't got much hair left so I ain't got one  :grin:
