Brake pedal drill
Has anyone drilled the brake pedal? It seems rather thick.
I thought the gas pedal would be a problem but the whole pedal is rubber. It is actually the brake pedal that is the worst of the 3. I don't have the right drill bit to drill into this damn thing. Guess I will get that tomorrow. Just wondering what others might have used.
Here are some "in-work pics".

Sorry I was joking...next time i will be more clear.
You dont NEED a Carbide tipped bit, they are over kill for what you are doing and they are kinda expensive. A normal decent quality drill and bit will get you through the peddle just fine.

No problem. I have a decent drill but I guess I just need some better bits. It looks like it would be better to do the brake pedal in place. It looks like there is alot of **** attached to it.

Drill a smaller hole first (pilot hole) and then a larger hole to the size you want. With a metal-specific bit (carbide or other) it shouldn't be too hard....I had to drill 3 holes into my brake AND clutch pedals...

just drilling it does nothing really...mostly for looks. If you look closely at my pic, the brake and clutch pedals have little ridges around the holes in the pedals, which provide better foot grip on the pedal. Besides that....it's cosmetic.
