Pedal swap, who's done it?

Pedal swap, who's done it? How hard was it and where did you get your new pedals from? I'm thinking about doing mine on a 2012.

Going to have it done next week. I'm going with the Drake pedals. Most online sites have them.

I installed the ZL1 pedals from GM Parts House. I was keen on putting the pedals in the oven, so I put them in hot water. DON'T DO THAT!! The aluminum piece come apart from the rubber piece on the clutch pedal. A few drops of crazy glue fixed it right up. I still don't like the oven idea.

And the ZL1 pedals look a million times better than the OE rubber ones.

From what I have read it is difficult to get the pedals on. They heat the pedal up before hand to get it to expand. From what I gather the clutch and the brake pedals just slip on (?). Not sure though, that's whay I am asking everyone else what they did and how it went. Sounds like for something really simple it can be a PITA. They sure do look awesome though.

These are not what you have I dont think. These are billet aluminum and use screws and bolts/nuts to attach after drilling holes. I do like the halo glow though..lol
