Yay! Put in my sport pedals
 
1 Attachment(s)
I originally bought inexpensive eBay knock-offs which were terrible, and now sprung for the real deal- real MB parts.

Super easy to install- need a 12mm socket to unbolt the old gas pedal and install the new gas pedal. Old foot brake and parking brake pads slide off. I moistened the inner edges with alcohol and the new ones installed in a jiffy. While the alcohol is wet, it acts as a lubricants, but it dries/evaporates very quickly. Total time, including looking for my socket wrench, was 15 minutes.

PS- why is the image own my screen rotated 90 degrees?

+1, looks great. I always check to make sure image is correct rotation on computer before posting. That's always worked for me.

How much HP gain? :naughty:

Great look. I put the same design on mines but I got some random brand off of Amazon. Regardless much better then the black ones that came with the car. A PITA to get on though, I just cut the old ones off with a heavy duty scissor and the new ones slide on with an opening already on them.

I subscribe to the 10% rule- HP increase is equal to 10% of cost. Isn't that how it works? :smash:

I put mine on a few weeks ago. My only complaint is if you drive with your shoes off it's not real comfortable on your feet. They look great though!

I hate even driving with flip flops on. It feels foreign no pun intended lol.

I know people who do it all the time and I just can't but with no shoes on I'd feel like a new driver all over again.
