Car enthusiasts are a special tribe. Gently and with trepidation, they treat their favorite vehicle, some give their cars names, someone talks to them, but everyone loves them. And their owners take care of their cars no less, and sometimes more than about family members. Various devices, mats, pads, covers, travel bags and many other devices are constantly purchased. Some of them have a certain functionality, others serve only to create an attractive appearance or to increase prestige.
Pedal covers combine all these properties at once. They are functional: in any weather, the leg will not slip off. Rubber inserts ensure a secure grip of the sole with the pedal surface. Their use also gives the car a more attractive look - these devices, different in style, color, texture, can be selected for a specific type of interior design. Well, you can talk about prestige too - if the pedals are stylishly decorated, what can we say about the rest of the car's decoration.
There are alsopedal pads that have a backlight function. In addition to the aesthetic component (it is really unusual and beautiful), this addition slightly improves the lighting in the cabin. Moreover, it does not hit the eyes and does not interfere with driving. Soft illumination from below allows you to more clearly coordinate movements in low light conditions.
Pedal pads are rubberized plates that have a different shape. Each model and brand of car has its own sets of these devices. For cars with an automatic transmission, two of them are included - for the brake and gas pedals, for manual gearboxes, one more is added - for the clutch.
Any pedal pads are attached to four (rarely two) bolts. The fixation is very secure. To install new pads, you need to remove the old ones, drill the required number of holes in each pedal, if necessary, connect the power source for the backlight. Next, you need to install and fasten new anti-slip mats to each pedal using the bolts that usually come with the kit. There are models on sale that are mounted on double-sided tape, but it is very difficult to call this method of installation reliable. It is better to spend a little time installing than to suffer with "creeping" pedals.
Buying pedal covers is easy. This can be done at any car market, in every car shop or online store. There are a lot of options - prices, types, colors, brands, tuning studios - everything is different. There are overlayson the pedals of VAZ, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, etc. - for any model of any manufacturer. If you are unlucky and you could not find a special kit for your car, then when choosing the main thing to consider: the distance between two adjacent linings should not be less than 20 mm. Then, in any situation, neighboring pedals will not interfere with each other. In general, pedal pads are a useful and convenient addition that improves driving conditions, which means it increases safety.
