350z Dead Pedal installed

I finally got it!
Paid 10 bucks for it so like 11 bucks with tax at courtesy nissan today.
I just finished installing it.
Instead of using a hacksaw I just used dremel to cut away the back.
I'll post pics tommorow when the sun is back up.

Cool...I received my pedal from Courtesy yesterday and am looking forward to installing it. Did you have trouble getting a straight cut with the Dremel? Sometimes the darn thing jumps when I'm making a cut since it's spinning so fast.

Why did I pay $18 then (shipped)????

Hey, with the screws is there any chance of hitting wires?

Oops here ya go. The post didin't post right. http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchan...de=67840-Z33DP

The dremel worked fine. I just took my time and got a clean cut. and i didin't have to sand off any of the excess. It was perfect.
Took about 5 minutes to do.

Install took about the same time after i wnet to Home depot to buy the screws.

Oh, I got mine from DAVEB, not from Courtacy. Oh well, I was amazed that ANYTHING from Nissan would be under $20!

Do you use self tapping screws? Did you remove the carpet before install, then cut carpet? Detail detail details!!!

I can't wait to get mine.
