Now that I've actually started doing things with my X, I keep wanting to do more. And here's something really simple.

I want to put the larger "racing" style pedals on my 04. Having begun driving buses, I can't get used to the tiny thing called a gas pedal in these, and the brake isn't much better. From what I've seen, the pedals give much more space (both horizontally and vertically), and still don't interfere with each other. They also look pretty sweet.

Has anyone done this? I've looked at Aldive's thread about his '99. I'm thinking it should be super similar. Has anybody used the cheap-ish ones they sell at places like Autozone? I know you get what you pay for, but for something like this, I can't imagine much of a difference unless we're talking about the benefits of aluminum vs. solid steel.

Will do! Probably going to go for the cheap ones from Advanced Auto Parts in the next few days, and I'll do the clip on to start with. If I like how they feel I"ll do the semi-permanent drill on installation.
 






I have the Autovation pedals on my current ride and had them on my last one. I love them. I was just thinking of them yesterday as I was stuck in traffic. I love how "grippy" they are. You hardly have to use you whole foot on the gas.

The quality of these pedals are MUCH higher than those ricer pedals you see in the stores.

Here is my review of them.

Ah, good to see that multiple people like them. They look really nice. Pricey though. May need to hold off if I want to put those on instead. :)
