    Hella accelerator pedals. Any thoughts?

    Has anyone had any experience with Hella accelerator pedals? They are considerably cheaper than O.E.M. but i'm not sure of the quality. I did think that maybe they made them for V.A.G & then V.A.G. just stuck their sticker on it, upped the price & called it O.E.M. A bit like a recent experience...

    That's what my brother said but i told him it wouldn't be a sun visor because of the sun shade strip on the windscreen! You live & learn! Any idea what the small, recess is for on the front? Looks like it could house a sensor of some sort?
