I kinda like these pedals and they look perfect for the 914 pedal cluster. Feel free to share your opinion and I'll feel free to consider it or ignore it.

Those are ok. I think they are pricey though. I got the Sparco pedals for $25 or $30.

I dont like the fact that they go OVER the existing pedals. Wait until Dunkels. There is a guy there that sells a complete bolt in billet gas pedal and the covers for the brake and clutch pedals. I like the look, I just think it is cheasy they are covers and not complete billet pedals for the pedal assembly.

Which Sparco pedals did you get?

Maybe we should expand this topic a little bit. What do people think is better, smooth (metal) pedals or something with some grip (be it metal tooth or rubber insert).

I agree the MOMO's are pricey but they are the exact shape of the 914 pedals, thus keeping the non-stock look to a minimum.

This isn't the most important topci to ever come up but the list seemed a little quiet tonight.

I have driven several cars with this type of pedal and disliked the fact that my feet slipped on them easier than they did with stock rubber pedals. If I had them..they would end up with skate board grip tape on them.

Jon.

I have these pedals.

They say $49 there, but I found them somewhere for $30 ish. dunno where, maybe it was ebay. I like them alot. I agree with Brad though. I rather have skateboard grip tape on my pedals. If your shoes just get a little wet, game over, whether they are the rubber nubby pedals or the all metal ones.

Thanks, I had a similar experience on another car of mine. I think I'll just stick with stock (it'll be one of the few stock parts still on the car )

I got a set of these in my 911 and have a set to be installed on the 914
Don't have any 'grip issues', unless I'm wearing my pimp/dancing shoes (which I try to avoid as much as possible ) and it's wet outside...
They bolt over the existing pedals
The brake and gas pedal are sleightly wider, which helps 'heel & toe' action
And at $15 a set, they're hard to beat (OMP, Sparco etc. all sell them)

cheers,

Jeroen
