Automotive Rubber Rudder pedal covers?
So my arrow needs rubber rudder pedal covers on the pilot side. I’ve heard that flight schools have been known to improvise and purchase rubber pedal covers from auto supply shops and simply zip tie them on
for added security if they seem a bit loose.
1. Is this legal?
2. Is this safe?
3. Is this smart?
Opinions please?

These aren't going to be legal parts, unfortunately. Try a boneyard like Wentworth, they should have them.

Need help? Let me know!
The rubber rudder pedal covers used on Pipers are a Harley-Davidson part. They are used on the rear brake pedal on a bagger.
The H-D part number is 42416-83.
I love to defy gravity!
