I tried to install my Rennline dead pedal yesterday and I had to bail out early on. I couldn’t get the hood release lever off. Can anyone describe how it’s done?Thanks in advance!

The ultimate pedals version has an l-shape(Flanged) for the dead pedal and the metal runs around the corner to cover and protect the side carpet. I did not need to remove anything to install it. Used self tap screws for the dead and gas. Drilled the brake and used bolts for that...You can't use bolts on the gas. The pedal is plastic honeycomb on the back and there is no way to get a nut to fit in it. Hence drill a smaller tap hole and screw the self tap screws (4 in my case) in. Easy. The drilling of the brake is the hardest part, imo

Rockitman, sounds good...but if I went with the ultimate pedals then I would need to do the whole set not just the foot rest as it would not match...that is more then needed.
