I found it alot easier if you use 2 inch C clamp to reinstall the pin its much much easier. And put it back same way as u took it off insert the top corner first but leave the bottom hang to the left so you can put the nut in and after you screw in alittle in then insert the bottom

Thank you sir... C-clamp worked like a charm. I forgot I had one and was pounding away at the pin before I read your post

F-me I try mine and no luck. The Dame tech that did the pedal recall did it so you can't take the nut off. It just keeps spinning over and over. Any ideas to get the gas pedal off now?

Yes it is I've yet to jack the car up to look under the chassis. Maybe I can grip it from there to stop the thread from moving with the nut?

Yeah the tech who did it cross threaded the nut to the bolt. There fore it won't come out any more. Had a friend help me and we end up banging out the pin while it was in tack. To a little longer but we got it.

I don't think the sport pedals come with an e-brake peddle. When I did mine I found a Toyota clutch pedal that matched the F-Sport ones perfect. I made a plate that bolted to the e-brake and installed the clutch pedal on to that. Now all my pedals match.

After waiting for awhile on a great deal, I finally got a set of pedals and installed them. Definitely gives that sporty look and feel. FYI, when punching out the pin, I just used an ordinary nail wide enough to fit through the base but not through the pin. Also, when placing the pin back, It's best to use pliers and clamp that thing down as oppose to hammering it back in. Btw, they're deeply discounted on ebaY. I got them from this seller click here (only a few left).

I just installed mine today also. Thanks to this forum for making it alot easier if I have to figure it out by myself. I got the set from the same seller like 5nX37. With the tips from this forum and the video on Youtube does make everything easier. I pretty much does everything the way the guy on Youtube with the accelerator pedal. As for the brake pedal, I took one of the member advice on using WD40 and wiggle it at the corners. The easiest is the footrest pedal where all you do is yank out the pedal by sliding both of your hands at the bottom right corner and yank it out then slowly work your way to the top. After yanking the footrest pedal out, both of the plastic clips were still stuck to the car. I tried to use the needle nose plier to yank it out but that's didn't work. I then use my hand and unscrew it like a nut by turning it counter clock wise and it loosen up. That's the trick. Hope this little head up help any member whoever encounter the same problem. Oh, I love how a little thing like these pedals give it a sporty look like 5nX37 mentioned. On the side note, I also put on factory All Weather Floor Mats and love it also.
