[QUOTE="Tob, post: 11030103, member: 83412"] I spent the better part of the day installing these and I have to be honest - it wasn't a quick and easy job. No roadblocks that I couldn't overcome but challenging nonetheless. So lets get this started... I guess I never paid much attention to how the stock pedals look. A quick glance from down low has my head mumbling...[COLOR="Silver"]Bullitt.[/color] [ATTACH=full]229883[/ATTACH] Removal of the brake and clutch pedal covers is simple. Pull them up and pull them off. [ATTACH=full]229884[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]229885[/ATTACH] A quick look at what'll be joining quite a few other take off's from my '09 [ATTACH=full]229886[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]229887[/ATTACH] New meets old [ATTACH=full]229888[/ATTACH] So much for the clutch/brake pedals.
