If its a nice day tomorrow im planning to fit some silver foot pedals.
A while back someone told me that i might have to drill my pedal arms, but today someone told me that i don't, i just have to screw & bolt them on.
Please tell me how to fit them.
Also will my car pass the m.o.t with them on?
Cheers Ness

i recently put pedals on my corsa and all i did was drill the holes i didnt drill through the pedal arm coz thats rell hard and arkward. the only problem is that u wont be able to get veary good pedal spacing expecially between the brak and accelerator. that is what i found it will the take a bit of time to get use to the pedals though. as they will be quite close together.
this only applies to the pedals which have the holes in the middle.
what ones are they?

i fitted mine and had to drill in the pedle arm. These were sort of universal so i don't know what the made to fit pedals require.
MOT - i think they have to be 50mm apart, or there abouts, mine are not so i will take mine off and replace them with the rubba pads again, they will cover any thing i did so it will be as if they were never taken off.

When car was in Vauxhall gettin summin fixed up, I asked if they would fit pedals.
First they said yeah, then they said they werent to the standard.... ie too wide... is this true, or are they just shittin me?

i have the ripspeed ones whicj#h are the same as the sparco ones.
they are wider just means that the pedals will be closer together.

Don't forget though, most insurance companies don't like them, and any excuse not to pay out in an accident....

Ah, a questioni asked a few months back. I think Adam perthwick sent a pic of some cracking pedals (i think sparco) about £60 but tailor made for a corsa so not a great chance of pressing both pedals at the same time. and easily fitted (accept the drilling but that wasn't through the pedal arm).
