R Line Pedals Not Fitting Right
Just got my R Line pedals today, and all of them fit but the accelerator. The old cap and the new one are not even close. I am stubborn so I still tried to get it on, until I ran out of day light. I fit the old cap back on in about 30 seconds, so it is not that I don't know how to get it on there....
 I am sure this has something to do with my car being a very early 98 beetle.  I know there are some mark III parts in my mark IV. My car is more like a Mark 3.5Anyone else have this issue?

If the R-Line pads are like the TT-style, you do not remove the accelerator pedal. The new pad slips over the pedal. You do remove the brake & clutch pads and replace them with the new ones.
Good luck!

I have the same problem!
But I only managed to put the clutch pedal on! My brake pedal didn't go in so I didn't even bother trying to put the accelerator pedal. So what's the magic?

Try heating it up a little. Softer rubber works wonders. And a small screwdriver to get the rubber lip around the plastic pedal.

if it makes a difference, here is a mk3 with the r line pedals so it shouldn't be a mk3/4 parts issue.
