AFTERMARKET PEDALS (install help needed)

[TrueBlueNJ]

I have had the bullet pedal kit for awhile now and installed the clutch, brake and gas pedals quite some time ago. The only one I never installed was the footrest pedal. Needless to say installing the other 3 pedals were a real PITA. Does anyone know how the heck to get the stock footrest pedal off so I can snap in the bullet one?

It is not to bad. You need to start off by removing the door sill piece then remove the molding piece that covers the wiring harness between the fender and the driver. It is really not that hard to do. Once you have the two pieces off there are two bolts that are behind the pedal that need to be removed. I think there are 7/16 bolts. Trust me this pedal is the easiest one to replace, the brake & clutch are much harder to replace IMO.....

What are the bullitt pedals and what's the big difference in them compared to stock?

Ok, I've got a question. I rplaced my clutch a while back and when I did I pulled up on the clutch pedal to release the cable, well now I have a problem with it releasing at inapropriate times(driving for one) like if I sidestep the pedal it will snap up and release itself. Also, if I bump it with my toe when getting in it will let go. How do I keep it from doing that?

You have to buy a new one the rubber is now streched to the point that it will no longer fit the metal plate firmly..

Buy a new clutch pedal? And how do I avoid that in the future is there a way to release the tension with out fing it up?

Hot soapy water and avoid cutting/tearing the rubber...

for the footrest pedal I used a screw driver and kept prying up until it broke off. I didn't need it anymore so I didn't care

Popped the new one back on. They look better and I think are a little bit wider than stock pedals.

Footrest was the easiest on my GT. Got some heavy duty pliers with the wire snip thing on em and chopped the clipp off the back of the old one.
