    Default RHD owners, quick question.

    On LHD cars the LH (our driver's) kick panel has an integrated foot rest.

    Do your RHD cars still use the same kickpanel, or is your passenger kick flat?


    Wondering because it would be much easier to work with two flat panels when I go to fab up 6.5 kickpods.
    Thanks.

    yeah pretty sure the LHS side kick panel has no foot rest.

    We have a foot rest for the L foot on the driver's (RH) side but nothing on the passenger (LH) side.

    And the footrest (at least on my car) is just an indent into the carpet that is supported behind it, not like a proper footrest like LHD E34s have.
