Beetle Accelerator Pedal Kit - 1966-79 - LHD (Also Karmann Ghia And Type 3)

This complete accelerator pedal repair kit is designed for Left Hand Drive Volkswagen Beetles, Karmann Ghias and Type 3 models manufactured between 1966 and 1979. Over time, the accelerator pedal assembly on classic air-cooled VWs can suffer from worn rollers, sloppy hinges, cracked pedal bases or tired springs. This kit replaces every key wear component to restore smooth, accurate throttle control and improve driving comfort.

The kit includes a new LHD accelerator pedal, moulded to original specification, along with the correct rubber pedal cover for improved grip and pedal feel. A fresh pedal spring ensures the throttle returns positively and consistently, preventing lag or sticking often caused by ageing original springs.

Also included is a pedal hinge pin, manufactured to precise tolerances to remove side play and ensure solid, stable pedal movement. The kit’s pedal roller is essential for correct operation on these models, allowing the pedal to move freely against the accelerator linkage. New clips and fixings complete the set, giving everything required to rebuild the pedal assembly without reusing old or worn hardware.

This kit is ideal for restorations, MOT preparation, replacing a tired or sloppy throttle pedal, or simply returning your LHD VW to crisp, factory-correct driving response. Once installed, drivers will notice smoother pedal action, more predictable throttle input and overall improved drivability.
