I just fitted a couple of VW-Audi-ish pedal covers. And I noticed the whole of the original accelerator pedal is plastic. The foot pad and the ‘stork’. I know it’s drive by wire and you don’t have to ‘stamp it’ but old habits die hard, So better go easy on it when your racing that EX30 off the line! Got them from MGTitan which is a far more reliable version of Aliexpress. I learned the hard way having been burned recently on Aliexpress for 50 bucks. Never again!

Pedal covers are great though. Also orange, my dogs harness, legal requirement in QLD, although pooches on laps is very common in Noosa. Not quite sure how putting a dog in a handbag keeps everybody safe! Anyway.. also her over sized seat protector. She only sheds twice a year…….. six months each time ?

And while I was at it cleaned off an unnecessary app from the phone. And to think I nearly put a speculative deposit on a Fisker Alaska ?

I originally got these pedals off ebay last year, just be careful with the accelerator as it has a tendancy to slip down. In the end I put a 3M adhesive strip on the inside of the cover and it hasnt moved since.

Great tip, thank you ?
 
I bought these off of Ali, but the accelerator pedal is a tad short, and does not cover the entirety of the plastic pedal right at the top, missing about .5 cm. Seems to sit firmly in place though so far.
