Just get two of the same part...

Just get two of the kind that you CAN get. Same as the ones on a 4000q..

Just happened to me a few weeks ago. The two foamies are close enough to be the same to not matter.

I think it's an 85 GTI

I got this idea from a friend. Go to a VW dealer and ask for accelerator pedal bushings for an 85 GTI.
Bring the metal piece with you and you will find
the fit perfect and are made of a a much better rubber/urethane than that foam rubber crap.
