After a screw-up by my dealer last week, the correct pedals arrived today. They really went out of their way to get the correct pedals for today.Total install time was about 35 minutes. Hardest part was the gas pedal.
A few tips if you are going to do this yourself. Gas pedal has three 10mm bolts on the outside of the plastic housing. There is also 1 electrical plug that should be removed first. Next remove the top bolt on the gas pedal. You will need a 1/4 drive ratchet with a SHORT socket or a wrench. Once the top bolt is removed, the bottom two can easily be removed and the pedal will come off. To reinstall, place a bolt thru the top hole and then put the pedal in place. It will be easier if you then start the lower 2 bolts prior to trying to get the top one started. Do not tighten till the top bolt is in. Very little room for your hands and it must be started by hand. Bolts are about 2 1/2" long. Tighten all 3 to 15 ftlbs., replace the electrical plug and the pedal is complete.
Remove the rubber brake pedal by lifting one side and giving a gentile pull. It comes right off. To install the new one, start on one side a gently pull the rubber over the pedal. In the corners I used a short flat screwdriver to assist.
To install the dead man pedal, clean off the exsisting area throughly. I used 91% alcohol. Line up the pedal, remove the paper covering the adhesive strips and push. I used a heat gun to warm it up so it would adhere better. A hair dryer would do the same.
As you can see, to end result looks great. Real nice addition to the interior!!
