bought a footrest and a set of replica pedals from turner, thought i would take pics as i went along!
Note: I didnt acctually use the accellerator pedal that turner sent me, as i already had a pedal assembly from a 172 on there....anyway
First i went about removing the plastic footrest from the car, then gave it a clean over. Everything else below is what turner sent in the package
Next.... held turners footrest over the plastic one, and marked where it needed drilling....
Then i realised i didnt have a rivet gun, so after searching on here lol, i saw someones post saying Wilkinsons sold them for a couple of quid. Off i went, and i got a rivet gun and a load of rivets for 4 quid, even though i didnt need the additional rivets...
So i drilled the holes, then put the rivets in....
...Finished them with the rivet gun, and wola:
He also sent a stainless screw to replace the black Torx one that usually holds the footrest down.........all fitted:
Next.... I had to drill the brake and clutch pedals that turner had sent, so they could be riveted onto the pedals on the car.... I made a template from a 182's rivets, and drilled the clutch and brake accordingly....
so after drilling the pedals, i used a little scribe tool to mark the pedals on the car, so the holes were drilled in the right place....then attempted to drill them...
i say 'attempted' because two drill bits i had shattered, and i had only done 1 hole! i didnt know what else i could use.....after speaking to ben_p, he said get a one for drilling hardened steel, which i did......
before i could, i had to make a little rig to hold the pedal in place while i pushed against it.....screwdriver ftw
did the holes, put the rivets in, riveted them, and the clutch was done
next, i scribed the brake pedal, and drilled that also..............on the last hole, this happened! the new drill bit snapped FFS!
anyways i managed to get the brake on...
as i said at the beginning, i already had a 172 accellerator pedal, so i didnt need to use turners accellerator pedal, il save that incase i ever need it
looking at it though, it was all dirty and manky, so i decided to drill the rivets out, clean it, then rivet it back on...
fitted it back to the car, and they were all done
the replica pedals look exactly how a sport does, well near enough :boring:
just a couple of others seeing as im a pic *****....
finally, a big thanks to turner for some top quality products
