WCT Performance Pedal Spacer MK7/7.5 & MK 8 Golf/GTI/R

** Verison 2 Pedal Spacer fits both LHD/RHD Vehicle.

It's finally here! Our first product that was designed from the ground up using CAD software.

Many MK7/MK7.5 Golf/GTI/R drivers have complained about pedal spacing in these cars as how hard it is to heel/toe. Being MT drivers ourself, we have explored many options on the market including pedal extensions and have yet to find a solution that we liked. Hence we have designed this pedal spacer. We have went through multiple revisions of this spacer and it has undergone extensive on road and track testing before we settled on its final dimensions. We have had a group of testers that carried out testing in the past several months and we have received nothing but positive feedback regarding this product.

Our pedal spacer slots between the gas pedal assembly and the bracket and cleverly utilize the stock mounting points for a painless installation. The result is an approximately 0.5" raise in the gas pedal height. In our testing, we find this height to be optimal for heel toeing under various conditions. All testers reported seamless transition from brake to throttle and much better reach from the brake to gas pedal.

The product is CNC'd from aluminum and finished off with a sand blasted finish. It's almost too beautiful to be hidden behind the gas pedal.

Here are some reviews from our early testers:

Bobby Li, MK7 GTI MT (Street Driver)

"I’ve always had an issue with the MK7 pedal layout, I was unable to heeltoe with it and consulted online forums like vwvortex and golfmk7 as well as MK7 facebook groups about it several times, and it appears that I’m not the only one. We’ve all been searching for an answer and I’ve kept a close eye on a lot of different options including: 1) Self-fabbed sheets of metal for a wider pedal, but this looks way too ugly. 2) Rennline pedal replacements/covers, but this was too expensive at $200USD or something ridiculous like that 3) Razo pedal cover RP81/RP82. I actually bought this and tried it, hated it, tried it 3 more times in different configurations, hated it all, removed it the night I installed it. This pedal cover has too many sharp edges that caught in all sorts of ridges in the bottom of my shoes, and the pedal surface just didn’t feel nice. It’s also an ugly solution for the times you DO see your pedals, if that sort of thing bugs you. 4) Tried fitting an OEM brake pedal (which is wider) to the gas pedal, but that didn’t work out either because it extends itself to the opposite direction. So I realized I’d love a pedal with the nice shape and curvature of the OEM pedal, just raised a bit. WCT makes this pedal spacer that quite literally is formed to fit the shape of the pedal mounting point, can’t be seen once installed, and takes a couple minutes at most to install. It’s just one screw holding the pedal. I’ve noticed 3 marked improvements: 1) It raises pedal height by about half an inch so that it’s more in-line with your brake pedals. This allowed me to heeltoe without really digging my heel into my footwell searching for the pedal. 2) This one came as a surprise because I was just expecting easier heeltoes, but throttle response appears to be improved. This makes sense because the pedal is higher up, so it gets depressed more in the same distance. This is somewhat like a part two to the VCDS mod to improve throttle response, and I figured it helps because most drive-by-wires feel dead in the first 5-10% of pedal travel. Another person also noticed this in what was essentially a blind test, so it’s safe to say this isn’t just placebo. 3) This also makes driving in heavy traffic and up-hill much better, because I can transition between the two pedals easily and without getting my shoe caught on the edge of the brake pedal."

Jerowe Ragudo, MK7 R MT (Street Driver)

"If you have tiny feet and are having troubles heel-toeing in your car, this is it. Pretty simple design and install was relatively easy.

Essentially all it does is raise your gas pedal about half inch to about the same height as your brake pedal when depressed. I honestly didn't expect it to work as well as it did but so far it's been great I haven't had any issues heel-toeing since.
