First, let me say that I did perform a search but did not get any meaningful results. I just got the aluminum pedal kit deliverd but it came without any instructions (thanks everythingg35.com). I know that grubbs had some great install instructions on their site, but it is now 404. It was at http://secure.grubbs.com/pedal_insta...alInstall.html
Does anyone have directions for this install? The only one that looks unintuitive is the gas pedal.

Thanks!

First remove the stock pedal. You'll first have to pop off the clamp on the upper part of the pedal. Once its off, wiggle the pedal to the side untill it comes off.

Slide the plastic sleeve into the lower hole of the aluminum pedal. Slide it on from the side, and swing it up. Use the provided clamp to hold it to the upper stem.

There will be some play, so you can use some electrical tape and wrap the stem so it fits snug into the aluminum pedal. I just left it the way it was.

 

for the brake pedal, make sure to heat up the pedal b4 trying to get the new one on. if u dont want to heat it up, use some soap/warm water and that should make sliding it on easier.

 

I installed mine with out ever having any instructions, or reading any thread. I tried to install the brake pedal w/o doing anything to it, and it was a PITA to install! I got it on, but my fingers had one hell of a work out!

I guess I was lucky...it only took me about 20 minutes to put on the aluminum pedals for the manual. I stuck the pedals in hot water for about 10 minutes or so. The trick was that I used a flat head screw driver that was angled about 45 degress once inch before the end of the screw driver. I don't know what they are called, but I used this to pry on the sides of the pedals. Good luck...

 

One of the hardest mods I did to my car, lol!

Make sure you heat up the new pedals, otherwisey you'll kill yourself trying to get it on.

 

Well, I have the dead pedal, the brake pedal, and the ebrake pedal (sedan) installed. Heating up the break pedal certainly was the way to go - thanks. I guess I'll need to get a mirror and see how the back of the acc. pedal is currently mounted before I try it.

do the factory sport-tuned suspension package for the AT come with an aluminum pedal for the e-brake? if they do then mine doesn't have one

 

Nope. You have to use a clutch pedal and stick it over the auto E-brake pedal. It fits snug over the rubber, but it wont stay on unless you glue it. I did, and I'm happy with it.

 

here's a trick I always use when putting them on for customers. I use spray silicone and it just pops on there with a little force. and as far as the gas pedal goes. Make sure you got the little round clip looking thing for it. a lot of times they forget to include it. it's pretty self explanitory once you look at it.

 

Can i just buy the clutch pedal or does it come with the entire package?

 

Is it just me or does the Grubbs pedal install instructions link not work anymore? Is there any other DIYs for this? I have pedals sitting in my garage with no instructions...

 

it doesn't work. i have a link somewhere and i have pedals to install too... maybe we should do it together... i'm up the road in sunnyvale
