I believe someone already posted a "how-to" link. I was able to replace mine in less than 60 seconds and I'm not particularly handy. Perhaps I just got lucky getting everything lined up since I was doing it blindly.

I didn't think it was that tough. I thought since it was so easy, I must have done something wrong...but the pedal is still there after miles of smiles...

The dead pedal was a piece of cake, however the gas pedal is imposable without a mirror. I thought that it would only take 15 minutes, well 45 minutes later it was done. it wasn't easy, but the its definatly worth it once you see it. Good luck and enjoy your car!

Good luck with the mod.

This post has me wondering if my 2002 Z06 has a stock gas pedal. I bought the car about 6 months ago. It has an aluminum gas pedal. Is this stock equipment? I always assumed that it was. The car had some other aftermarket equipment installed.

In '04 I think all gas pedals were aluminum.

Char,
I did mine from inside the car - crawling about to get it done.
However, when it was done I went and had a "Vinnie Pie" to celebrate!
Surely you know what a "Vinnie Pie" is, don't you (about a mile from Day Chevrolet!).

Nope, just the Z06, if I'm not mistaken. I know my 04 vert has the plastic/rubber/whatever-it-is pedal (at least for now. Have the aluminum pedal in the garage waiting to be installed).
