bumpstop325 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 you have to take out the pedal box first. i have done this about 8 times already. theres about 11 bolts that hold it in. the clutch and brake pedal are attached on to it. the tricky thing is the bar that goes across the car thats attached to the brake. to get this out you need to undo both pins at each end of the bar. the other end is in the glovebox. it took me about 2 hours to figure out how to do it. have fun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
