Aluminum Pedals

[PWebRPH]

I just installed what I am pretty sure are the same ones you just got, they are sweet. Installation was a little bit of a PITA, but well worth it. The gas and dead pedal I drilled on top of the existing pedals; the gas pedal didn't look like it could come off and when you remove the dead pedal there were holes where the bolts would go. There is obviously a height difference but it is pretty minimal. I am 6'1" and have no issues.
The clutch and brake pedals come off pretty easily, then I drilled holes in the base and bolted them on. The clutch was plastic so that was easy to drill thru, however the brake was metal and a little more difficult. No special drill bit, just as long as they are strong enough to get thru the metal.
If you search aluminum pedals there is a post from about a year ago that has a nice link that I believe perfectlap posted that has pix of an install that someone did, that was pretty helpful for me. Oh, I have a 987, I don't know if the pedals are different on a 986.... probably should have said that sooner.

Almost forgot pix, hope this helps.

I've installed these, but the feedback from PWebRPH pretty much covers it. Just a couple more comments:

A 90 degree attachment to your drill will help a LOT.

I'd get new mounting hardware. I wasn't too keen on the stuff that came from Taiwan and bought my own at a hardware store. From what I've seen most people buy and use their own bolts and nuts.

I am going to give this a go as I have been staring at my aluminum pedals for about a week or so

I presume I have the same set as well. Good snag

Only tips I would suggest are:

-Start w/ the brake pedal. Yes it's the hardest (physically and otherwise) but it's also the one w/ the least forgiveness. You'll need to line that one up perfectly and can then align the clutch pedal off of it. If you do clutch first, you could run into clearance issues on the nuts for mounting the brake pedal.

-If your hardware didn't (or even if it did) come w/ lock washers, I'd still hit the threads of the machine bolts w/ some locktite. Definitely don't want thos suckers coming loose while driving.

Good luck and enjoy!

I just installed the complete Rennline set very nice. I like to move the pedals to where I want them not line them up perfectly. Just my two cents. I'll have pics soon. or you can see at rennline.com.

in other words....... you ran into clearance issues when trying to line up the brake pedal huh? j/k of course
