This was Saturday afternoon's job for this last weekend. The pedal set consists of Accelerator, brake and footrest pedals. The accelerator and brake were direct fitment, the footrest was not a straight forward job and required some modification.The main thing was to measure the dimensions of the footrest and make sure that the one supplied in the kit was big enough to be cut down to shape. The basic kit consists of these parts.
You have to remove the original rubber "anti-slip" pad from the brake pedal. The new ones come with anti-slip grips to keep them ok for the M.O.T.
I started with the accelerator pedal first as it was fitted by self tapping screws through the original pedal, I applied some super glue as the were put in for the final time. The brake pedal requires very careful marking to get the screw holes drilled in just the right places. The one was fitted using the screws and nuts supplied in the kit.
The footrest also required careful marking and cutting to shape, I used an air cut-off tool to do this but a hacksaw achieves the same result.
When you have done this and clean off the rough edges you have to re-fit the rubber pad and trim it to the same shape as the pedal, once done it's simply a matter of fitting it to the original plastic footrest with self tapping screws.
OK, it's a fair cop Guv, send round the ///M police, I should've left the tape on for the pictures.
Anyway, road tested tonight to Saxilby, to the Mandarin and given the seal of approval.
Tony.
