Does anyone have an original pedal rubber (or set of 3) with the TVR logo on that they want to sell (having replaced them with something else)? My 1991 S3 still has the original TVR pedal rubbers on which I like, but the clutch rubber has finally worn through and dropped off.

RaceTech have new ones, but they seem a bit steep at £16.50

Failing that, do you know what else might fit, that is not going to cost the best part of £50 for a set. Jag E-Type or XK120 look similar. If all else fails I will get some alloy pedals. What have people fitted that they get on well with?

Do you really think its excessive for a low volume sports car with the logo moulded into it?
Try buying a few japanese parts! yikes

Well I would not say that a Jag xk120 is high volume production, and you can get pedal rubbers for less than £7.

Triumph TR pedal rubbers are about £6 for a pair with a logo, and again not high volume in my opinion.

So yes, I think the price is a bit on the steep side. However I am realising that buying parts for a TVR is like buying things for a wedding. "oh, they are flowers for a wedding Sir, well our normal flowers are not suitable for a wedding, and wedding flowers are twice the price"

If you want one that is serviceable but definately not "as new" I could find you something from this motley selection......

Recieved..... was going to keep the "best ones" just in case I revert to standard one day but will pop a serviceable in the post, if Simon still has any stickers left maybe you could buy one and everyone's happy!


Or maybe the "Ripspeed's " next smile

I already have two stickers, from my last £10 donation for the glove box key. I will send another donation to Simon, but do not need any more stickers. Again, thanks.
