04.11.2007: Aluminium kit
A "racing" set of aluminium pedals from a local auto parts store. I chose this one because it was all business - three honest pads of plain aluminium with riffled surface for extra grip. None of that cheesy nonsense like stickers of fake carbon fiber. Surprisingly, it was the cheapest too.

Aluminium pedal installation on a Saab 9-5.

The original pedal pads on the car got torn from heavy use, so I decided to replace them with a generic pedal kit from a local auto parts store. The mounting hole pattern differs between kits, so chose a kit that could be attached to your pedals without having to drill into the arm on the back on the pedal. I only had one hole that came too close, so I tapped the thread in it instead of using the nut on the back.

It might be good idea to cover the floor before you start drilling. Getting those metal shavings out of the carpet is not easy, even with a powerful vacuum cleaner.
