Does anyone have these on their GLK yet

jpjolo

Let me know if you decide to get one. Would be quite interested in getting one too but unfortunately no Brabus center near me --- only California and I think Florida. Too lazy to pick up the phone and call them

I think something similar was mentioned in another thread before but don't know what became of it.

Thanks.

I got great news for you buddy, I found a website that carries these pedals, of course they are replicas but they look great!

I'm ordering them tonight at this website

Great ! Let me know how it fits. If everything goes fine with you I might just get one too.

I'm going to do it, but I really want to install the AMG ones, like the one's that come on the Euro version. The only way I would lean towards the Brabus one's, is if I pull the trigger on doing the Brabus Carbon Fiber kit and shifter....Hmmm, we'll see!

NYCGLK

Can you post pics of AMG ones to see the difference? I think brabus knock offs look pretty decent in the picture. Now need Brabus illuminated door seals with those hehe

BTW, that CF set from Brabus is $1,500 bux and you have to send your alum trim, what a rip off.

Sean76NYC

Click on that web link, they have AMG one's also!

MadLorGLK

Oh no, that quote for $1500 is from a different company
and I think they need your aluminum trim for the mold, not to keep, you get them back

I still have not heard back from brabus but I know that it will be alot more expensive.

You need to drill install those pedals? I think the ones on ebay has rubber fittings in the back to fit over but they don't fit x204...

GLK4MATIC

I believe most companies that ask for your factory pieces just wrap them since it is easier to do then make a true carbon piece. Also, I think the GLK's pedal is longer then the W204's from what the dealer has told me.

NYCGLK

oh I see, I was a little confused about that. Geez 1,500 bux for a stick on c'mon, we own GLK and G55

MadLorGLK

Just heard from Brabus

Carbon fiber trim

10 pieces for a whopping $5600

with only a 4-5 wk wait

ooowwwiiiieee.....

To rich for my blood.
I will probably just go wit a local company that dos them for $1500

Here are the Brabus Replica Pedals that I got

Havent had time to put them on yet

I think they look great, only thing is that i have to drill but no biggie

Real nice! post photos after install. Thanks!

Looks sweet. But it looks like the "B" is colored on and will start to rub off after usage.

MadLorGLK

B sign is actually etched into the pedals not stamped

doubt that will rub off

webada

did it come with instructions? can you elaborate on the installation steps? I woudl hate to drill through exsiting pedals.

NYCGLK

Those look great, can't wait to see them installed.

MadLorGLK

I finally installed my pedals

Took me about 2 hours but I'm sure a pro can do this in about 15-30 mins max

In the process (because I was impatient) I broke 2 drill bits (damn)

All in all I think it looks great

I used my camera phone on some of the pics thats why they came out smaller

I will try to retake more pictures with my regular camera

I kinda slowed down on modyfying this car, i got into fixing my other ride, I will wait till more products are available for our GLK.

Next thing on my list is to black out the front grille (pretty cheap $45 I'm really hoping that i will not ruin the look of the GLK), then definitely get the struts from GLK4Matic ($399) when he makes them available to us.

1) Remove all of the rubber peices on the pedals.



2) This one is pretty easy to drill through since its plastic. I just drilled 2 holes.



3) This is metal so its a bit harder to drill through. 4 holes total in the end but only 2 shown.



4) For the gas pedal you have to cut the rubber piece in order to take it off the plastic pedal. I'm sure there are other ways to do this without any cutting but I was too lazy to try to figure that out.



Here it is cut


5) For the gas pedals its pretty easy to drill through, its also plastic. 3 holes total

6) for the footrest, this was the easiest to install, just screw it in to your desired location, no drilling necessary. the screws provided goes right thru the carpet.

7) Result (Sorry for the low quality of photo)









The broken drill bits

Looks very nice!! good job

EnigmaAW

looks good!

NYCGLK

yea looks very good.

Thanks for the pics of the install so we have an idea what we are getting into if we decide to get those. Seem pretty easy even with drilling tho.

I wish I had time for all of this. Maybe over the summer I'll do some mods.

jpjolo

Ok I'm sold.

Getting one too.

Barry626

I cannot believe the nerve to charge $14.50 shipping when Priority is like $4.00?
I guess autodecors can figure out what they can do with their pedals. No buy here!

A high strength epoxy may also work in place of the drilling
