when i bought my car it had some crappy razo pedals mounted in it, but i found that for the size of my feet i would keep hitting the gas and the brake at the same time because the covers for the pedals would shrink the gap between the gas and the brake. just my 2 cents. but i'm sure if you look on ebay you can find them.

IMO, they are just pedals. They will get scratched and dirty anyway. i'd just go to a rice speed shop and get some cheap ones with the look you like. They come with many colors and styles. Much cheaper but the same look

Take a look at evolutionautodesign.com and ultimatepedals.com. Evolution goes for $55 and Ultimatepeadals which are the best looking goes for $188 for gas, brake & footrest. I just brought the full flang satin anti-slip footrest for $89.

Or...you can get these for under $20







The brake pedal is held on by 2 screws and 4 clamps...and the gas pedal is held on with 1 screw and 4 clamps. These things are NOT comming off.

I forget where...but I got them online. You can easily do a search for "nokya pedal" and it'll list you with a dozen options.

As far as the bolts/screws...they are NOT stainless steel, although they are black iodized (I think...but they are defintiely coated black). The pedals themselves are aluminum...from the picture you can't tell...but the brake pedal curves in.

If you wanted to get these, I'd suggest you DON'T get the colored ones. I use to have them in blue, but after a year of wear & tear, the paint will eventually fade where you step on the most.

The silver (brushed aluminum) ones I have now are 2 years old and they still look good.

I live in CA....so no rust ANYWHERE.


EDIT:...if rust is a factor...I'd spray them with a couple of coats of clear-coat finish. (You can buy it from any auto car parts store)

I like the one I posted because it has a cover for all the pedals that are in the TL. I've seen those NOKYA one on eBay while finding out about the AMG one. Ultimate Pedals cost soo much money. I'd rather get the AMG one before buying those.

Be sure to check the size of the e-brake pedal on the AMGs if you get them. My parents have a C-class and I think the MB e-brake is smaller than the TL's.

The reason why I like the Ultimatepedals.com is that the screws are stainlessteel and they don't need that rubber stuff so your foot don't slip. From what they told me, these are custom made to fit perfect. At that note, they still are way to expensive. I kind of regret getting the footrest from them.

Looks like it.

Perhaps I should consider getting like 2 Nokya Pedal set for both MT and AT. That might work.... But
