Rennline Pedal Sets Explained: Covers, Adjustable Throttles and Which One Fits
You come down the back straight, go for the brake, and roll your ankle over to blip the throttle — and the gap between the brake pedal and the throttle is just far enough that you catch the edge of it. The revs don't come up. The downshift lands badly. You do it again on the next lap, because the pedals haven't moved and neither has your foot size.
Almost everyone driving a Porsche on track has a version of that problem. Rennline's answer is 151 different pedal parts, which is its own kind of problem. This is the short way through them.
There Are Only Two Products Here
Strip away the SKU codes and the range is two things that solve two different problems.
Pedal covers bolt over your factory pedals. They give you a wider, grippier face and let you bolt on a throttle extension to close the gap to the brake. $136 to $300 depending on how many pedals you cover. This is what most people need.
The fully adjustable gas pedal replaces the factory throttle assembly outright. $362 to $415. You want this if your pedal geometry is genuinely wrong for you, or if you're driving a late water-cooled car and would rather the throttle not break.
On that last point. The factory throttle assembly on the water-cooled cars is a plastic housing on a plastic hinge, designed for commuting. Rennline built the adjustable pedal specifically because those assemblies fatigue and fail — and Porsche's own race cars used a metal-to-metal mount instead. If you have had a throttle go soft or vague, that is what is happening.
Pedal Covers: Reading the SKU
The codes look impenetrable until you realise they are just parts stacked in order. P71.62.101 is gas pedal P71, plus brake and clutch covers 62, plus dead pedal 101.
Step one: air-cooled or water-cooled?
This is the fork that catches people. The base gas pedal number tells you which side you are on.
| Your car | Perforated | Rubber grip |
|---|---|---|
| 356 · 911 1965–1989 · 964 · 993 · 914 | P44 — $136 | P70 — $147 |
| 996 · 997 · 991 · 944 · Boxster · Cayman · Panamera | P45 — $136 | P71 — $147 |

Step two: perforated or rubber grip?

Perforated is drilled aluminium — the classic motorsport look, and it sheds water. In a wet paddock with soaked soles it is the less forgiving of the two.
Rubber grip has replaceable rubber inserts. More grip in the wet, quieter underfoot, and the grips come out if you decide you want the bare aluminium later. Sets ship with spare grips. It costs about $11 more per pedal and it is the one we would pick for a car that gets driven in real weather.
Step three: how many pedals?
The piece count means different things depending on your transmission, which is the single most common ordering mistake.
| Transmission | 2-piece | 3-piece | 4-piece |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manual | — | Gas, brake, clutch | Gas, brake, clutch, dead pedal |
| Tiptronic / PDK | Gas, brake | Gas, brake, dead pedal | — |
So a three-piece set for a manual and a three-piece set for a PDK car contain different parts. Look for TIP or PDK in the listing title — if it is there, there is no clutch cover in the box.

| Set | What it is | Price |
|---|---|---|
| P45.21 | 3-piece perforated, manual | $210 |
| P71.60 | 3-piece rubber grip, manual | $268 |
| P71.62 | 2-piece rubber grip, Tiptronic or PDK | $242 |

The Throttle Extension Is Not Included
This is worth saying plainly because it catches people out: throttle extensions are sold separately. The pedal set does not include one.
The extension is the part that actually fixes the problem in the opening paragraph — it widens the throttle face toward the brake pedal so your foot can cover both. If heel-toe is why you are buying pedals at all, budget for the extension at the same time. It bolts on and comes off again if you do not get on with it.
The Fully Adjustable Gas Pedal

Covers improve the surface you press. This replaces the mechanism behind it.
It adjusts in every direction — height, depth, laterally and angularly — so instead of adapting your foot to the car you set the pedal where your foot already is. It retains the factory electronics or cable, keeps the OEM cable cams on the 996 and 986, and uses a machined socket for the factory potentiometer arm on the 987, 997, 991 and Panamera.

There is one for every chassis, and they are not interchangeable:
| Your car | Pedal | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 911 · 912 · 930 · 964 · 993 — 1965–1998 · 914 1969–1976 | A12.2 (Rev2) | $371 |
| 924 1976–1988 · 944 1982–1991 · 968 1992–1995 | A12.1 (Rev2) | $362 |
| 911 (996) 1999–2004 · Boxster / Cayman (986) 1997–2004 | A13.3 (Rev3) | $415 |
| 911 (997) 2005–2012 · Boxster / Cayman (987) 2005–2012 | A14.3 (Rev4) | $410 |
| 911 (991) 2013–2019 · Boxster / Cayman (981) 2013–2016 · 718 2017+ | A16.3 (Rev4) | $368 |
Matching brake, clutch and dead pedal covers are sold as complete sets alongside each one, which is where the $415 to $546 listings come from — that is the adjustable throttle plus the rest of the footwell in one box.
Don't Forget the Left Foot
The dead pedal is the one people leave off the order and then buy separately a month later. Under cornering load your left foot is doing most of the work holding you in the seat, and on most Porsches it is braced against carpet over a flexing floor pan.
A dead pedal starts at $110, and if you want the whole footwell solid, the floorboards go under it. There is also a heel guard at $131 for the carpet your right heel is slowly destroying.

So What Should You Actually Buy?
- Street car, want it to look and feel better: a 3-piece rubber grip set for your chassis. Around $268.
- You track it and heel-toe is the point: same set, plus the throttle extension. Around $350.
- Air-cooled: the covers are P44 or P70, not P45 or P71. Getting this wrong is the most common ordering mistake on the range.
- Tiptronic or PDK: a 2-piece set, and check the listing says TIP or PDK.
- The pedal geometry is genuinely wrong for you: the adjustable gas pedal for your chassis. Nothing else moves the pedal itself.
- Late water-cooled car with a vague throttle: the adjustable pedal, and treat it as a repair rather than an upgrade.
- Right-hand drive: there are RHD dead pedals (P95 RH, P98 RH) — check before you order.
