 DIY - Aluminum Pedals (Lots of pics) | « » 12:38 AM 9-18-2005 | |
|
Hey guys,
Here is a detailed DIY on installing the 2006 VW Jetta GLI aluminum pedals.
Many thanks to my friend Ivan for the great deal he got me on this set as well as his help on installing them.
Overall, the install took about 10 minutes. Very easy install.
I love the new look. Hope you do too.

That's a nice diy, thanks! how is the grip compared to stock? I'm also curious how the grip is when your shoe is wet. Looks very nice!

Grip is very good. No loss of traction.
I just did the install today, so as far as wet shoes on the pedals, I'll have to wait till it rains.

You can order them from any VW parts dept. Be sure you get the 2006 GLI and not the 2005. Two different kinds.
Yes they have the MT6 pedal/clutch set.

Thanks for the great DIY thread! I've been thinking about ordering the pedals for weeks and am going to place the order right away.I also noticed your aluminum vent covers in the last pic. Are those the vents that come with the sport package? Or are they the TT (or other) covers?

The dead pedal is compatible with the GLI as well. It is a little bit more expensive though.

This is exactly what Ivan and I paid. Excellent pricing.
Any chance you can get the dead pedal? Count Ivan and I in if you can. Let me know.
Thanks

The dead pedal is dirt cheap . . . $27 retail from a vw dealer. It'd probably be cheaper to just pick one up from your place in town than to pay shipping. I posted the PN in his other FS thread. Dave

Yeah, I jotted down the part number, but I could have sworn the dead pedal was $200 when we bought the set. That was what my friend the parts dept. said. Maybe he was smoking crack.
