Camry Sport Pedal Cover, Wondering if anyone has installed these before.... Options

[Spider77]

Did a search, couldn't find a thing. So I figured I'd ask if anyone has installed these things before. Here are a few pics---->




I plan on doing this in a few hours...but if anyone has prior experience that would be great.
Thanks.

OK, so the weather held out and it was a nice day to get this done.
As you may know I had to make some modifications to the stock pedals to get these to fit properly.
By far the brake pedal was the easiest. More room to work with and its metal (not plastic). The cover was made to slide right over the camry pedal with little to no effort. In this case though the sides had to be ground down. That was easy enough with a dremel.

This is with the sides ground down and a little bit of Loctite metal/rubber adhesive. I placed the glue in the two grooves running the length of the pedal and slid it on.

This is the brake pedal cover all clamped down.

This is the backside of the gas pedal cover next to the stock pedal. As you can see there isn't much for it to grab on to, and some cutting had to be done. Dont have any pics of that, but pretty much had the make the pedal thinner and curve the edges. Other than that, the only problem was the rubber tabs didn't slide into place under the pedal, as there are parts of it that get in the way and do not allow for this to happen. What I had to do was at least get the top and bottom corners to slide under. After I got that all set up I slathered the pedal and the back of the cover with the adhesive and slipped it on. After a bit of struggling (the adhesive made it a little slick) I clamped the hell out of it.

So, now that is how its sitting. In a few hours I will go out, take off the clamps and run some more adhesive on the back side and sides of the covers to assure that they stay in place. All in all, the gas pedal was the worst. Im sure the brake pedal will stay put, but untill I allow it to dry and get out there and use it, I cant say if the gas pedal will meet my expectations.
