The rubber piece I was referring to was the old brake pedal. Some people keep it on, others take it off. I ended up taking it off to make the pedal fit better, nothing to do with corrosion! I figure if any corrosion happens, I'll just buy some new ones!

out of the 3 which do you think looks the best, the ones with the engraving, the ones with acura written on each one or with acura on one and the acura symbol on the other 2?

Is the drilling necessary since you use self tapping screws?

Drilling is necessary on the brake pedal only (bolt and nut is used).

Self tapping screws are used on the dead and accelerator pedals, if you wish you can pre drill those with a smaller drill for easier installation.

I bought mine for $28 on Ebay from this seller in China: http://www.ebay.com/itm/140898972612...84.m1439.l2649. Ordered it on 2/17 and it arrived today (2/24). You can see from the photo I didn't get the nice packaging others got but each piece was in its own Ziploc bag and everything was double bubble wrapped in a cushioned envelope. No installation directions. The eBay web site showed installing both the brake and gas pedals with the nuts and bolts but from reading here, I knew just the brake pedal was bolted on. My package of screws, bolts, and rubber washers did not include nuts for the bolts (altho there was one extra of each other item). So I made a trip to Home Depot and bought the nuts for $1.50 (stainless steel). I wrote to the seller and told him but I didn't want to wait another week for him to send me the nuts. Installation was straight forward - had to slightly widen the brake pedal holes as recommended here but everything else was fine. I took my brake pedal rubber off as it was pretty worn anyway. 2010 TL SH AWD.

I had these on my old TSX, they looked great but I won't order them again, once the rubbers became worn down on the pedals they became really slippery in the wet weather.

I also picked up a pair for my 2012 TL SH-AWD. You can't go wrong with spending only $27.99 dollars. They look great!!!!

I've had mine since last August and are still looking great and holding up perfect! If they eventually happen to wear, it'll only cost $27 to get a brand new full set replacement.

I got a set of these that just arrived.

Mine don't have the screw holes lined up in the same places as all the pictures though. My dead pedal piece has only 3 screw holes in it (2 top, 1 bottom-middle). Will this still work, or did I get the wrong part?

The screws in the bag don't appear to line up with the holes in the pedals either. Here's a picture of what arrived in the package:

Well, since no one responded with any advice, I took some initiative and ended up using 3M mounting tape to stick these pedals on. The screw holes just didn't seem to line up correctly. This solution seems to be solid, but time will tell.

Here's the result:

For some reason, I could not open either of your pictures. I think the security of the pedals is critical and I wouldn't settle for less than screwing them in. If your pedals look different than the other pictures posted here, I would contact the seller for an exchange. Hope your solution works.

I cannot open you pic as well,however as the member above said,it is best to screw in the pedals for safety reasons.

I was probably the first person to do this mod and got them from a different source (not ebay),the holes does not have to line up with any existing holes on any pedals.The accelerator and dead pedals will use self tapping screws and the brake pedal needs to be drilled with 4 clearance holes for 6/32 bolt and nuts.
