    new pedals

    i remember some recent talk about pedal changes, just finished mine up today so i figured id share..
    got them from pep boys made by pilot.. i thought they were a nice addition to a black/grey interior, they came in a triangular shaped box, the clips they came with to clip around the stock pedals didnt work worth anything, the brake kept falling off because the stock pedal is so small they just didnt reach well, plus when centered on the pedal, my work boots are too wide to easily fit between the brake pedal and the side of the transmission hump since the new pedal is wider, so i just went to home depot and found some screws that fit into the pedal nicely and drilled out my own holes, and hard mounted the pedal and offset it away from the gas pedal.. all in all... sweeeeet i love the way they look lit up by my underdash LEDs

    Nice look, etl!! How did you wire the LEDs, into your cabin light circuit or to a separate switch? I think I'd like to add some red LEDs to my interior, particularly down in the footwells.

    Ldub, Do you ever ask women to softly whisper the phrase "superior strength-to-weight ratio" to you? ;-)

    theyre done through the cabin light, i just soldered my leads to the top of the prongs that hold the dome light bulb in place, so anytime my dome light is on.. the lights in the footwell are on... ive been thinking about trying to ground them to the door switches so that they come on when each individual door is opened, havent really given too much thought about how to do it, but i think itd be pretty nifty

    Was it an LED kit or did you wire up the bulbs individually? How many are on each side?
