I have the passenger footwell bar, but no knee pad! Then again, I'm not sure if the S4 Infini's came with the knee pad

I have the left knee pad and some marks on the door pocket where the right one used to be. It went missing before I bought the car. I quite like having the one I've got and I'd like to have the other one.

I see absolutely no point for the foot bar. If I had an Infini, I'd remove it and sell it to one of you wannabe-Infini suckers...

They are a synthetic suede- I know because mine has a cigarette burn on the JDM driver's side. They seem to wear well and the fabric keeps you from sliding.


Kneepads would be nice! Unfortunately the door mount one won't work w/ the manual windows and that damn handle bruises me as much as the stereo surround- at least the handle doesn't break though.

So - if Japanese RX-7's are RHD - then maybe you ought to ask your passenger if they prefer to have a knee pad and a foot bar?

Just sayin.

Color and the Infini badge.

Convertible BBS wheels are 15" and have "MAZDA" on the centre cap. Infini wheels are 16" and have the Infini logo on the cap.
