    OSIR O-Paddles - stainless steel pedals review

    So I got a set of these:
    http://www.parts4euro.com/DCShop/pro...oducts_id=1118

    The quality looks great. Installation required some elbow grease, much like the OEM install I imagine. The gas pedal took a lot of prying with a stubby screwdriver to catch all the way around. The brake pedal actually required cutting some rubber in order to fit. Unlike the OEM pedal which only hooks from the side and bottom, this one also hooks from the top. However, that gets in the way of the pedal's "arm", and you have to cut away part of the rubber hook. It doesn't feel quite like a perfect fit in that region but it's very strong.

    Here's a crappy iPhone pic of it installed:

    Looks nice. Curious why you chose these over the OEM alternatives.

    RS4/RS6 and now RS5 pedals are a perfect replacement... the dead pedal does not need to be modified.

    Depends what you consider pricey, but Europrice has them listed at $256.33 including dead pedal. That sounds very reasonable, IMO.

    Scroll down to the "interior" section and you'll see "RS5 Aluminum Automatic Pedal Set w/ Dead Pedal" listed.
