FInally got 'em done. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be wrestling them on there. Really changes to look when you open the door

Looks great! How do these detach/attach? I'm looking at doing this as well...

The clutch can break just slip on. They are kind of like a rubber cover. The gas pedal I believe has 2 bolts and a sensor/ harness. I have them on my list of to do mods and they actually aren't to expensive

But OP they look great

Thanks

. I was really pleased with how they came out. Yes, the brake and clutch "just" slip on. The old covers slip off pretty easily they are much more maliable than the new ones. The new ones are tighter, stiffer, and need some finagling. I used a heat gun to soften the rubber and a screw driver to pry the upper lip up and over the actually pedal during the install. I have read some folks bake the pedals in an oven first to soften them up. My finger tips are a little sore from the process of pushing and pulling on the tough and very warm material, but I'll survive

.

The accelerator is as stated, a few bolts (3 actually) and a wiring harness. WAY easier than the brake and clutch pedals

. Unbolt it, drop it down, pop the harness, snap harness into new pedal, bolt back to the floor. Wha-la.

sorry guys, just saw this now. I got them from GMpartshouse here (few items down the page):
http://store.gmpartshouse.com/partlo...egoryID=161270

The install is a bit of a wrestling match but really not as bad as what I thought it would be from other posts I saw. The pedal covers slip over the metal pedal. So it's sort of like a mattress cover. I found it fairly easy if I slid the cover up from the bottom. Then the bottom of the pedal seats itself seats into the pedal cover. Then you just need to pry the outer edges of the cover over the top. That is the part that's a pain. I used a heat gun (before I slid the cover on) to make the rubber soft. I used a small screwdriver to lever the upper rubber lip over the top corner one on side. Keeping upwards pressure from below so the cover didn't slip off again I then pried the top part, and finally the opposite corner up and over the metal pedal itself. With the rubber real warm and malleable and a small screwdriver it really went pretty easily.
