Well done sir. Does having the plugs in make it easier to get the new tubes and o-rings inserted?

Rennline
Bored waiting for our 4th of July cookout to start, so I ordered the Rennline pedals/deadpedal and HT extensions (silver pedals, black rubber dots, red HT) with the 10% 4th of July discount code directly from Rennline.

Hi Lew, I ordered the accelator pedal cover rather than the mechanical pedal unit. The brake and clutch pedals require that you remove the oem rubber pads. I think the dead pedal just fits over the existing plastic piece. Mainly I wanted the look and I needed the toe extension for the throttle.
The part numbers I ordered are:
P71.60.59 SILVER Rennline Aluminum Pedal Set - 4 Piece
PE70_71HT RED Rennline Throttle Extension - Heel/Toe
I’ll post some comments and pics after install.

Not sure this goes here or the funny story thread.
I did not close my top when I arrived at work, as it was still cool out was going to make a coffee run before I closed the top. Well ended up 3 people for coffee, so forgot to close the top.
Upon my return to my car when I was going to another location to install an internet connection I had MILLIONS of very small bugs on my car in my car friggin everywhere. So had to go take a short spirted drive to try and blow them out of the car!!!!! Will have to vacuum this afternoon now.

I work on a very small military installation, no security issues. In town I barely even want to park anywhere!

I don't think so, but it was easy, anyway. They came out and went in with no trouble.
I didn't want to take my plugs out because I just replaced them (that was when I discovered the leaking tubes) and taking them back out just seemed like extra work.
