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.

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!!

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.

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!

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?
