flashback to yeterday.... i get a couple of extra bucks in my pocket from doing a guy at work a favor,so... i decided to buy that set of aftermaket pedal covers id been eyeing up at the auto parts store.grey with black inserts and red lettering(macthes my grey shiftknob with flashing red l.e.d's). i installed these exact pedals on my old car which i should have took off when i traded it in for the vibe. anyway... first you have to take off the stock rubber pads and install the new ones with the crappy brackets they give you the wouldnt hold on the the vibe pedals plus i guess cause the new pedas were thinner i couldnt get the clutch down far enough to start it ,so i put the stock rubber back on and try to put the covers on over the rubber but the bolts were to short so i go to home depot and wait 30 minute in line for longer bolts that still dont work cause these crappy brackets bend.its late so i go in the house.better luck tomorrow. today. its raining but im going to put them on anyway. i go back to home depot and buy screws i drill holes in the pedals and screw the covers down to the pedals its hard getting the screw to line up with the holes through the rubber,but two very wet hours later they are on and looking good.was it worth it. hell yes. by the way dont hold objects your drilling through in your hand while drilling or else your wiping blood off your new pedals and floormats. which reminds me next mod, metal floormats!!!!

quote:Sounds like you have been having a rough day. Drilling while having you hand on the other side or near the drill... What are ya thinking?Jeeze, soon we are going to call ya STUBBY if ya do not becareful. LoL!!!I thought about getting these pedals. I have them on my other ride and they were simple to install. How about some pics?? (After you clean up the blood. )

I put some "sports" pedals on my Vibe and I haven't had any trouble. I put mine as showned and I keept the rubber on.You can see part of them on this pic.

its all good now .sorry no camera ,not even a computer, im on webtv. all future asset will probably go to the ride. anyway mines are just like the pic above just grey and black with red letters on top, however my shift knob is cooler. if i angle my rearview mirror just right the flashing lights reflect off it and people pull over thinking the cops are behind them, i love doing that.search led shiftknobs it will probably come up its got 6 lights on top of it.later.

I've been wanting to get a set of MOMO aluminum pedals. I wonder if they will cause me as much trouble as these ones.
