I love it and I think now the heel and toe is easier.

Thanks Carl! I'm very pleased, and they feel great. The heel/toe is easier you are right, although the brake pedal still needs to be adjusted to sit further back a slight bit (it's pretty far in front of the throttle even when braking).

One detail I'm also curious is the grip, if you have your shoes wet that will be slippery right?

Keep a towel in the car to wipe your feet as you get in.

Thanks Nick!

Pedcrcri, I believe I paid duty, but no brokerage fees. I think it was UPS (not USPS) but I don't remember as I ordered them way back in December. An option is to order them to CBI USA (mailbox in Niagara Falls, NY) and pick them up and bring them across the border yourself to save on shipping and other fees.

With the side wings on the throttle peddle.... just be careful when braking that you don't inadvertently also partially step on the throttle at the same time!!

It's a very unsettling feeling when this happens.... the harder you push on the brake the less the car wants to stop!!

I soon took the "wing part" off after a few "oh crap!!" moments! Heel toe was still greatly improved over stock..

Looks great

make sure your mats are properly in place. it may just be the pic but it doesnt look like your mats are in place and could slip down behind and create issues.

Clive, why do yours look SO DAMN CLEAN!?!?

You're right, mine are sitting low. I was tired of trying to get the leather strap through those metal hooks and said "forget it".

Peter has a point regarding the side wing on the throttle pedal ... very easy to hit the throttle and brakes at the same time ... ask me how i know !

I have the Rennline adjustable pedal and the wing came off,much better without it !

Cheers
Phil

I like the Rennline stuff. You should put these track mats on your list:
