New Pedals

so i went to autozone today and bought a new shift knob and pedals...i got the knob on easily (take pics when i find the cam.) but the pedals are a different story...

the brake was easy enough, just slide it over and tighten..

the accelerator you gotta set up a bracket of some sort and then try to wrap it around the old pedal and its just a big mess..but when i get it on, the pedal isnt flat so it slides off...is there anyone who may have had this problem and has a solution for this? i was just gonna pull the hot glue out and fasten that sucker right on but that was when i run out of ideas and i dont really want to do that =/

Two good options here:

1. Just keep on screwing around with it until you get it. (That's what I did, and yes they definately are a pain to set up properly)

2. (Depending on the style of pedal)
Drill through any wholes the pedal may have on it.
Line up the pedal as you want it, mark and drill the holes on the stock metal pedal.
Push a flush mount bolt (with a flat screwdriver head) through both holes.
Put on a crush washer and tighten the bolt down with the proper bit and screwdriver.

I know #2 sounds confusing, I hope I explained it good enough for you. Good luck.

Double sided tape or double sided sticky foam

alright..yeah i think i will go ahead and try #2 i think i get what your saying...i dont think 2 sided tape or sticky foam will hold it up too much =/

i love how our cars have so many difficulties

i'm pretty sure installing them pedals on any car is a pain in the ass
