DIY - Aluminum Pedals (official instructions)

E92murdered · 12-17-2009, 12:40 AM

hello i have the ac pedals and on my car i do not have the pedal click on the accelerator. i have a manual dont know if it is because of that. My question on the gas pedal the screws supplied are way to long. What is the best way to file them i will try to get closest to the nut? will that be fine? thank you.

China stuff :-) Good fit and look.

Great thread thanks, I may do this soon. Hopefully it will make heel-and-toeing even easier and more precise.

I look forward to enjoying this forum, this is my first post.

Will this install work for E92 M3 as well?

Has anyone run into this issue for aluminum pedal: I bought a set of OEM aluminum pedal for 3 series automatic. The pedals was shipped but then I noticed the brake pedal is a wide / big pedal, while my 2011 e90 m3 (automatic) brake pedal is a small one, like the manual brake pedal. Are all automatic m3 like that? Or my m3 is special (previous owner changed it maybe)?

Seems that everytime I post i'm resurrecting an old thread, found this tutorial very handy, the dead pedal and gas pedal I thought would be the trickiest for me as I had no worries about drilling the brake pedal, things went well and then I discovered the brake and clutch pedal narrows far too much at the bottom(like the shape of a shield) and the bottom holes in my aluminium pedals miss altogether.

Anyone else have that problem?

I think that may just be the model car. I know 328, 335 guys aren't having problems with those specific pedals. Possible that the 320's have different pedal shape.

Cheers, i've come up with a little flat plate/bracket to solve the problem , not got round to trying it yet because it's not stopped raining for weeks
