Time to install pedals and footrest?

yeung330xi · 12-22-2007, 12:40 PM

just wanted to know the estimated time to install these things ?
I am going to get them installed at the dealer, so I don't want them to overcharge me for labour

thanks guys

takes 20-40 minutes depending how many bits you break during brake pedal install

which ones did you get?

Took me ~45 mins with preps and clean up, drilling thru the brake pedal was a nightmare

Thanks. It matches the aluminum trim perfectly.

Hey, what the ...? How come your car looks so brand new? I am totally anal when it comes to keeping my car clean and new looking, but it doesn't look as perfect as yours. I really like those pedals though. I've got the burl walnut wood trim, so I was thinking about some stylish looking wood pedals... just kidding. I might get one's like yours someday, when I finish with the other hundreds of dollars worth of mods that on my list of things to do and get.

They shouldn't charge you for more than one hour of labor

forza1976 · 12-22-2007, 10:31 PM

Just install them yourself, if you have access to a drill and you take your time it will be a very simple process.

Love the photo of the pedals. Where did you order them. Also, I agree under an hour to install.

Tommy420 · 03-20-2008, 01:41 PM

Just do it yourself...it took me about 30 minutes and it was pretty easy. The hardest and most time consuming part was drilling through the brake pedal, b/c it is made of metal. The other pedals are plastic and it was simple.

Expect < 1 hour labor. Just DIY, only hard part is the drilling thru the steel brake pad.

JohnnyK · 03-20-2008, 06:40 PM

I bought a set recently, haven't opened up the hardware bag, I'm sure there are lots of screws and nuts. I can see how you secure the main pedals but I'm not sure how you secure the footrest. I asked my dealer and he said expect 2 - 2 1/2 hrs. I said forget that. Did you guys use any sort of template?
Anybody have any good pics?

akack79 · 03-20-2008, 06:45 PM

M-dead footrest : remove the plastic dead pedal and install the M-pedal (no screws required), search for DIY for pics.

The other dead pedal I believe requires drilling and screws.

I wish I could say it took me 45 mins like some other folks, but it took me 2 hours as well! I am surprised it would take the dealer that long, I went slow on purpose to make sure I didnt f**k up, but they should be experts right?
