Pedal pads are a useful device

Motorists are a special tribe. Gently and with trembling they relate to the favorite means of transportation, 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. Constantly purchased various devices, rugs, covers, covers, vanity cases and many other devices. Some of them carry a certain functionality, others serve only to create an attractive appearance or to enhance the prestige.

The pads on the pedals combine all these properties at once. They are functional: in any weather the leg will not slip. Rubber impregnations provide a reliable grip of the sole with the surface of the pedal. Their use also gives the car a more attractive look - different in style, color, texture, these devices can be selected for a specific type of interior decoration. Well, about the prestige can also be said - if the pedals are stylishly decorated, what to say about everything else car decoration. There are also pedal pads that have a backlight function. In addition to the aesthetic component (this is really unusual and beautiful), this addition slightly improves the lighting in the cabin. And it does not hit the eye and does not interfere with driving. Soft illumination from below allows to coordinate movement more accurately in conditions of insufficient illumination.

The pedal pads are rubberized plates that have different shapes. For each model and car brand there are own sets of these devices. For cars with an automatic gearbox, they are bundled in two - the brake and gas pedal, for mechanical boxes, one more is added to the clutch.

Any lining on the pedals are fixed to four (less often two) bolts. Fixation is very reliable. To install new covers, it is necessary to remove the old ones, drill the required number of holes in each pedal, if necessary - bring the power supply to the backlight. Next, you need to install and fix on each pedal the new anti-slip mats with the bolts, which usually come complete. There are commercially available models that are attached to double-sided scotch, but it is very difficult to call this type of installation reliable. It is better to spend a little time on installation, than then to suffer with "crawling" pedals.

Buy pedal pads easily. This can be done on any car market, in every auto store or online store. Variants of mass - prices, types, colors, brands, tuning studio - all different. There are lining on the pedals 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 most important thing to consider: the distance between two adjacent patches should not be less than 20 mm. Then in any situation, the neighboring pedals do not interfere with each other. In general, pedal pads are a useful convenient addition that improves driving conditions, which means it increases safety.
