Does anyone has a diagram or instruction on how to replace the accelerate, brake and dead pedals on an automatic car? I've seen members in this forum changed theirs with ACS aftermarket pedals and they looks very nice. I wonder if that's an easy job and if there's any need to do some drilling on the car.

I think the BMWCCA archives have a pdf file of the install for the E39. I'll see if I can locate it for you.

Doesn't have to be wet, just be wearing leather-soled shoes. But then, it is an automatic, so it's not like there's a lot of repetitive clutching going on down there.
