OSIR footrest
« on: August 07, 2012, 08:53:26 am »
seen a few cars on here where people have got the OSIR footrest.
just wondered if this is the right one to fit a mk5 DSG http://www.thettshop.co.uk/interior.asp?cat=5002&product=802007 ?
or if not does anyone have a link to another please ?

That for some reason doesn't look to be the right shape, I could be wrong. I am also looking out to buy one so I would also be interested to know where to get them

Yeh the OSIR one is an overpriced piece of tat!! Looks good when fitted but the quality of the materials is appalling!!!

........which one did you go for?. The one in the pics is the hex screw & bolt fit(you can just see the small drill holes).The other one Gulf did was stick on,i went for the drill & screw fit. :smiley:

I have stuck mine on with some double sided tape currently as was struggling to remove the footrest but will be screwing it in place when I get a chance.

I have put some black vinyl behind mine and red tape behind the GTI logo, as you can see in the pic above :happy2:
