Should be good for the job, the MK5 pedal conversions sometimes leave the pedal sitting high.

Have a look down his feedback and see what people have written about them

the mk5 pedal conversion i so much better. all you need is an allen key and you can adjust it while sitting in the drivers seat testing it.

Indeed, i'm going to be doing a MK5 conversion myself and there will be NO high pedals, i won't allow it.

Someone give me a clue, how the fuck do you get the pedal out of a MK5 theyre fucking WELLLLL hard

I've just acquired myself a MK5 pedal (which i had lots of fun removing i might add)

Can someone answer me whether any MK5 had a self adjusting pedal or not because the quadrants have the teeth on them.
