Guys I'm back at the garage again.
And I'm gonna be doing a quick install of the M Performance pedals I got from Bimmian.
And here they are.
And I'm going to be installing them today to match the current dead pedal that comes
with the car.
Because right now, the black ones are kind of dull.
So let's quickly take a look at them.
And this is what it looks like.
So the pedals I'm hoping to install, would sit right here.
Kinda match it a little better.
The finish doesn't look quite the same from what I've noticed.
The one that comes with the car is more of a shiny aluminium finish and this one is a
little bit...I don't know, matte?
More brushed metal, I should say.
It's not the same but I mean it'll hopefully match enough that it doesn't bother me.
Alright, so with all that said, let's get started!
Give myself as much room as possible here.
So I have no experience with this.
So I hope I don't mess it up.
I'm thinking I have to remove these first.
And these feel like rubber.
So I'm just gonna go ahead and try to do that.
Not sure how successful I'll be doing it with one hand though.
Oh it's really easy!
Okay.
There you go.
Oh this one looks different.
So just remember, this longer one goes on the brake pedal.
What about this one?
Do I remove this too?
I can't tell.
I don't think there's anything to remove on this one.
Do I just drill it straight in?
I guess so.
Okay, we'll take it from there.
I have an automatic center punch and I'm gonna try to create some indentations here to kinda
get everything started.
Just so I can line it up easier when I do actually start drilling any holes.
So test fitting the clutch pedals first.
Making sure it's centered.
Okay, wish me luck!
[drilling]
Alright, oh that was really easy!
What the heck?
Alright!
[drilling]
Alright, let's try...let's try 3/32.
[drilling]
Come on, 3/32.
This one can actually potentially thread.
Alright it looks like 1/8th is probably the way to go to make the screws fit comfortably.
[drilling]
So I'm gonna be test fitting them right now.
Once these two are in, I'm able to just drill it through here.
Careful not to damage the pedal obviously.
[drilling]
I put all the four screw in place.
Now I have these nuts and washers.
Yeah they're really small.
I think the difficult part will be lining up the nuts with the screw in the back.
Because you can't see anything and if your fingers are big, then you're gonna have some
trouble here.
Yeah let's see if I can get this done real quick.
Awesome, so clutch pedal done!
That was really easy actually.
The finish on the clutch pedal in the back here looks a little bit different
from this one.
Hopefully I don't have too much trouble with this.
I'll get started.
Same process that I did earlier.
I'm gonna use the center punch.
And hopefully everything lines up okay.
Okay, so I see the spots that I've marked.
Just gonna do it one more time just to make sure I have the right spot.
Okay now that that's done, I'm gonna start drilling again.
[drilling]
Yo this pedal's so hard.
This one's way different from this one.
This one takes forever to drill through.
And you gotta go step by step going up a drill bit every time
otherwise it gets caught like this
[drilling]
Stepping up to the 1/8th now.
[drilling]
That is tough.
Oh man, that's just the first hole.
I gotta do 3 more.
Hot damn, oh man I'm losing sunlight.
It's getting dark and it's a good thing I have this box here.
Make sure you have some sort of padding or box down here or otherwise your knees will
be dead.
So I'm doing the third hole right now.
I've just managed to finally drill through this part here.
And so I'm currently working on it.
So what I've found helpful was moving from the 1/16th to the 5/64 to the 7/64 and to
the 1/8th.
You gotta take it step by step or else otherwise the drill bit gets caught.
It's not pretty.
[drilling]
Alright, now moving on to the 1/8th.
Oh that's satisfying when that one finally goes through!
Okay, test fit, let's do it.
Okay, that's a good sign.
Everything lines up so far.
Awesome.
And this one's just sitting here.
I'll take it off for now.
So these two are almost done.
I've noticed you gotta make sure you put the correct one.
One is actually for the clutch pedal, one is for the brake pedal.
So I just followed this pattern here, where it goes off to the right.
This one goes off to the right.
And presumably this one goes off to the left and this would go off to the left.
Oh man, I should have had this light on from the start.
There you go.
I got the foot well lighting going on.
Just using the center punch.
I'm just doing that to establish the bite point.
Make it easier for myself.
This one got really messy.
Probably best to wear a mask.
Otherwise you're gonna breathe in some pretty bad stuff.
Woah!
And googles, that just exploded.
Alright so this is the result.
It ain't that pretty.
Alright!
Did it.
Second pedal done.
Last one guys.
It's getting dark.
I'm expecting this one to be the easiest because I don't know, feels like it's made out of
plastic but I don't know.
From what I'm seeing, this hardware is not long enough to go all the way through
to behind the pedal.
So I'm likely to have to make the holes a little bit smaller just so these catch and
thread in when I install it.
Okay, the markers have been set.
And I see them.
[drilling]
Yeah these are just plastic so not much work involved in this one.
So for them to properly thread in, I'm using the 3/32 drill bit.
[drilling]
The only thing left now is to install the last pedal here.
Alright, well it's too dark I'm out of time today guys so what I'm gonna do is I need
to get a proper allen key for these little screws.
Because I currently don't have one here.
And I'm not able to install the gas pedal without it.
I'll probably resume this again tomorrow.
Alright so I just got to my underground parking and you know what, I decided to finish this
job tonight.
I have this pedal left to do.
I find the screwdriver I needed. Just putting this down for a second.
So this is the screwdriver I need.
Focus.
It is an H 2.5x25 screwdriver and it has like a little hex or 6 sided tip.
And that was enough to fit these little screws that I've been dealing with so far.
So I'm just gonna go ahead and screw the gas pedal in.
After everything is installed, it should look like this.
Not too much trouble.
This one probably gave me the most issues but I don't know, it was okay otherwise.
And before I end the video, I do wanna install one more thing here.
It is the short throw clutch stop that I purchased a few weeks back.
Trying to get a look behind the clutch pedal here.
That little white rubber stopper is what I'm gonna take out now.
So this is the two stopper side by side.and as you can see the OEM one is much shorter.
I probably won't be able to do this one camera because it's really hard to get under there.
Install's all done.
I got to test the car as well.
I test drove it real quick to make sure the clutch engagement was okay.
Everything turned out fine.
So let me see if I can get under here.
This is what it should look like once it's installed.
It was really easy to install the pedals once you have the right tools.
And the clutch stop was really easy.
So that's it for today guys, thanks for watching!
