Default A new Twist on an old idea- TT dead Pedal install

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/6174/img_2788_large.jpg"></center><p>Glued the tong back on- had to use the tab from my stock A3 pedal to fit right

and the mess is from testing 4 different glues to see which would stick - front side is perfect, so who cares what the back looks like.

Verdict- Lock Tight- superglue. tight as hell will not come off- - and the fit in the car is super tight as well. no movement at all

Default Questions...

Your sig says RS4 dead pedal. Is the TT one better?
And you have TT pedals instead of the gli pedals i've seen people install? Or are they one in the same?
Did you try installing the TT dead pedal without the clip?
Where did you get the TT dead pedal?

When i asked about gli pedals i meant the gas and brake. I believe that's what he responded about.

Default oempl.us has the whole pedal set for $149

<center><img src="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/images/dis/6177/600/6177.jpg"></center><p>which includes the dead pedal. It doesn't have the two groupings of rubber strips, which is the design I prefer. But you said $55... I see it listed for $79.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi/?html=learnmore.html&amp;productID=7408">ECS Tuning - A3 dead pedal</a></li></ul>

You are correct- the Gas and Break are the same in TT and GLI- not the DP
