WhiteGTI:
I just stuck some red electrical tape underneath the 'GTI' and folded if over, so effectively it is double-sided. Then just pushed it into place, and it hasn't moved since!
Even though its only stuck on with the electrical tape, it sits so snugly in the gap that it doesn't move/protrude upwards at all!
Very nice product, very good price, very good individual to deal with :happy2:

For the foot rest, I used double-sided sticky pads (lots of them), applied it in place and then sat in the car with as much force as possible on the foot rest to keep it stuck down. Was there for about twenty minutes.

I am not sure superglue is a good idea, its powerful stuff that, once the red tape fades and goes pink after a while you may struggle to remove it again when you want to replace the tape. :smiley:

My red tape faided recently, but with Red electrical tape holding it down, was easy to remove and replace with fresh. :wink:

I'll worry about that when I come to it. At the mo, my two biggest concerns are:
1. getting the car serviced
2. whether the weather will be good enough tomorrow for a detail incl. machine polish
3. how the hell the door sills got so dirty when I cleaned them only three weeks ago. Does anyone wax their door sills?
