Oops, this sounded like a thread about sexual toys, my bad. Continue with this enthralling subject.

I may extend this GB to more than Tommy Kaira products and have just a large shipment of JDM goods if there is enough interest.

sorry for the bump, but I ended up picking up a set in Japan. I hate to eat my words, but couldnt beat the prices in tokyo. I'll post some pics in a few weeks after I get my car back from the tuner.

There's a huge problem here guys.....

These I assume are designed to prevent you from continually banging your left left against the center console while you are trying to hold your body rigid during high speed cornering. These won't be beneficial to the USDM people since frankly our right leg next to the console takes care of the throttle and the brakes. We still hold our bodies planted with our left leg, it just never bang into the center console since, if that happened would be our right leg. I don't see the point in these for left hand drive cars....

Unless someone can logically explain how I am wrong, the only people purchasing these are ginormous ricers...

I'm definitely not wanting them for use, as you stated, they wouldn't work for what they are intended for on LHD........






But they look FN sweet.... Exact reason I want 2..... But how are they "ricer"? So because I have a lot of Momo, I must be a "greaser",lol.

You answered your own question. They're factory. I'll probably get them upholstered if i can't get these knee pads.

I emailed info@tommykaira.com & got the response(roughly translated):

Now, in cases of Inquiry TOMIKAIRAPATSU Thank you.
These contents of the Inquiry received.
Further, more representative contact you and to ask you for patience.

Hopefully they can get me a pair!

^ haha.. good luck trying to get them from Tommy Kaira directly. Your best bet is a vendor such as visionary racing. It is a really NICE product, I bought two to complete my interior since I have the "red/black" theme going on.

I checked with Visionary a few months back and they said the knee pads have been discontinued.

Guys, My car is for sale, so no need to keep these. I'm selling my set. $200 shipped. These are discontinued and no longer posted on Tommy's site.
