Our new GTI does not have an alloy plate over the footrest (much like the alloy brake and accelerator pedals) - it's just plastic. I've noticed in plenty of overseas model pics that the footrest is alloy. What about other GTI owners out there... plastic or alloy?

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

LHD and RHD are different, I've tried to source one for the R32 (which is also plastic) and as far as I can find out there isn't a RHD one available anywhere.Comment

Don't think so - have a look at www.tmtuning.com, follow: "VW -> interior -> floor / pedals", then look at the OEM MK5 GTI pedal option. If you look through the list there they only list a LHD "dead pedal" and no RHD one. You can also try looking at www.1stvwparts.com, but thats US VW based, so they may only stock LHD parts.Originally posted by Tim View PostComment

AFAIK alloy footrests have never been included on RHD cars delivered to Australia. Including all Mk4s and Mk5s.Originally posted by pinzvidz View Post

I think that the 2007 build model went to a plastic foot rest. Yeah I know it was a backwards step
