The red tab pulls out mate if you have a small flat head there is a cutout on the bottom or top which you put it in to help pull it out.

Where is that mate? Also do the H fit the J if so they are a decent price on eBay. If not the price is crazy like £50 difference lol.
the h is different but also look for insignia ones they fit
(13:th-Jan-2016, 22:01:29)tucpal Wrote: [ -> ]the h is different but also look for insignia ones they fit
cheapest is £87 lol...
EDIT nvm seen some for £40 now
Thanks mate
Only issue is they look the part...but the little bit of rubber that comes through those holes wears down quite quick I've found and then you're stuck with no grip! Nothing else to do them but get rid of them I think...

Yup they were the ones in my edit lol. Still interested in the ones
@rusty2009 was on about though as hey are cheaper
@sheppy1 - haven't had that problem yet mate. I took the set out of my old GTC before this one and they were 3 years old and are still as good as new when I put them in this one. Plus I took my silver door pins lol!!
@Kris I think the guys name is Michael Dolan on the Facebook page who sells the pedals.

Is he the one in the astra H owners group? is he selling the J pedals or the H mate? thanks for the heads up.
No worries mate found him in the astra etc owners group. is he trust worth? as i see he only takes bank transfers, which of course gives no protection.

Agree with Rusty, not bought anything from him but others have left good feedback!

Cheers lads ill get a set as he's much cheaper than everyone else.
Hi there lads,
As some of you may know I'm from Portugal, as so my Astra J Sports Tourer is Left Hand Drive.
I didn't know that the accelerator pedals were different from LHD to RHD, and because of that I've bought a set of this from Michael Dolan on Facebook (he was a great by the way!).
But now the accelerator cover doesn't fit on mine accelerator pedal :(
Do you know if I can swith the LHD pedal to a RHD pedal? As I can find loads of them on ebay!
Is there a reason to the pedals be different??
Thanks!
Anyone can help me with this?
I can't find on the internet if the pedals are equal or not ?
They should not be I would have thought
I could be wrong but I think the tourer has a different accelerator pedal to the hatchback

Hi,
Sent you a PM
Cash waiting if they are new/unused
Sorry mate. I've sent you a message. I wasn't getting notifications of posts. I think I've set it so I do now.

No worries, I have post notification problems on this forum too....sometimes I get them and sometimes I dont.
I've replied to your PM by the way
I've mailed you mate. Not sure if you got it
Won't let me send a PM. Are you still selling sets of pedals?
Yes. Still got them. £30 delivered
I don't have PayPal.
Bank transfer or collection from Glasgow
Collection from Glasgow would suit depending where about you are.
G75 OBH is nearest landmark.
I've just got hold of a set of these but the accelerator one is a bit worrying as on the left top edge, the rubber sticks out slightly as theres nowhere for it to slot into, just won't sit flush. Is that normal?
