Phil mate, how did you stick yours on? I got mine almost two weeks ago but haven't manage to fit it (car was in bodyshop for a week).

Did you remove the footrest?


I'm starting to think one with holes would have been quicker and easier to fit. :shocked:

I used the outdoor type stickie pads on mine and took about 30 seconds to put in and I didn't need to take the plastic foot rest out.  :smiley:

I Just gave the plastic a clean with an alcohol wipe first to clean/degrease it, it's now been in for several weeks with no problems at all.

Crikey!! How often do you guys polish your pedals? - I'm impressed!

So, what are the costs for Gulf's(?) and OSIR's?

....Cheers, bacillus. And I expect OSIR's costs a lot more but it does look more oem - I'm not knocking Gulf's product!

I think my osir pedal was around £ 55 + p&p

And a really really long wait.  :rolleyes: top quality though.

....If it's not already in stock in the UK it always takes ages to get from overseas.

Typical example if you order direct from overseas:

Day 1 - Parcel collected from manufacturer.
Day 2 - Leaves origin country.
Day 3 - Arrives at Heathrow.
Day 8 - Eventually arrives at International Hub awaiting Customs charges.
Day 10 - En route to delivery depot (ParcelForce).
Day 11 - Sorted in National Hub.
Day 12 - Arrives at delivery depot.
Day 13 - Snailmail letter sent to recipient notifying arrival and demanding payment of charges. There are extra charges if you want it delivered to your door or you can collect from the depot.
Day 17 - Snailmail notification recieved.
Day 18 - Have it sent or you collect - No goods without full payment of all charges, roughly 20-25% of your original purchase price.

In the case of OSIR products via TTSroadsport (sole Euro resellers), they usually try their best to include your individual order on one of their regular ones, which saves them and so you some extra import costs due to being separate.
