NEW Deliveries with alloy pedals

Any recent deliveries come through with these pedals fitted as standard to the GT?
I've ordered a set from parts but they are back order. Sometimes means the stock is being fitted to production cars hence none to sell .
Also what you think of these, not listed for scirocco but do you think it would fit. Seems to match OE pedal design with raised rubber grip

No I don't think that was ever confirmed and I haven't seen anything to suggest they're standard in the UK.

Don't see why the OSIR pedals wouldn't fit. They look quite nice.

yeah i priced it at 69.99 plus delivery
they are stainless steel though which probably wouldnt match the oem vw set

After reading the above post and quite fancying the Osir footrest I did a bit of Googling and came across an offer via the Ukmkiv's website for the footrests for RHD cars at £45 including p&p.!!
So I went for it . You have to use PayPal and it all seems to have gone thru OK . Just have to wait now and see if it turns up. I was already a member of that forum so don't know if the link will work if your not . No responsibility if it goes tits up!

Finally got my dead pedal fitted here are the pics.....
What do you guys think ? I'm pleased and the fact it comes with rubber inserts like the original makes all the difference .
But £45 is still steep for what it is

looking good but like you say steep for what it is. can't believe vw don't do this people would pay them 45 quid for one too. i have to say my overall experience of vw accessories is very poor. how long has the car been out now and they still haven't got accessories on the uk website.

I justed lined it up, poked 3 small pilot holes into the plastic footrest and then screwed it on - easy. Just had to do a bit of contortion to get under there
It comes with the 3 Allen headed screws an Allen key and 3 metal washers
