A question of those who have bought this device.

Do you find it awkward to fit and remove it ?

Can you fit it while sitting in the drivers seat. I was sitting in the drivers seat of ours and wondered how to fit it while there was the obstruction of the steering wheel.

Or do you have to stand outside and fit it while the drivers door is open?

I put mine on from inside, between the seats. It maybe easier from the drivers door but it was raining and it really wasn’t difficult or an issue from inside.
I am not particularly flexible, having broken my back, and I am built like the proverbial brick outhouse. But I found fitting it (without a drivers door) pretty easy and even photographed the install. So most people would find it fairly easy

I had a delay in delivery but it did arrive as promised. I have Jeff Gosling handcontrols fitted, so this is for those that can't tap dance. It is a tight fit, but just doable.

A few years.
Easy to fit as said with the door open. Not sure hands and knees if you have no door to open would be so easy?
Simple cut plate steel, far stronger than my wheel clamp, Think red would have been better as it could be overlooked while ign is being mangled in the dark. May paint mine in dayglo orange.

Cut our teeth now……so just above useless!
Mine was delayed too but it was delivered Monday.
Thanks to TheBig1 for the initial post.
I have no drivers door so I’ll post the fitting episode when I nip to the storage site.

Possibly the only negative I could mention with ATE is their choice of possibly the worst courtier in the country.

I wouldn’t use Hermes to send a stamp....they might be cheap but they’re definitely sh*te.

this is the tracking history all over the shop it's a joke :doh:

Tell ATE to send another but NOT via Hermes and let then recover it from Hermes. I'd guess they have lost it but their computer says not.
Just to rub a little salt mine arrived a day early.

The Fiat Based Vans have Plastic Pedals, saw Pics on the Net where they just lever the ATE upwards, which snap the rubber part off, but leave the stems which can still be used...

There is something about their name, it has a letter wrong. Should be Herpes, nobody wants anything to do with them

In case relevant to some, ATE have advised that they do not currently manufacture a version for a Sprinter automatic.
They will try and source a Sprinter for trials and go from there.
Looks a nice product and will order one if they ever produce it.

I spoke to them on the same subject, they need to locate late model sprinter to measure up. I’m waiting too.

Is the Peugeot Boxer 2015 - 2020 the same as the 2007 - 2015? I'd have thought they will be the same but if so why list them separately. There is no listing for the 2007 - 2015 van 🤔

Edit: Found it now... It's the same photo 😁👍

They are different..........

I had the same question a few months ago when I contacted them, I sent a picture of my pedals and they advised of the model. I believe the clutch pedal hole is different.

Have a look on their website and compare with the eBay Advert.

Please can anyone who has bought one of these tell me if there are little lugs on the back face, as well as the two on the front?
