Default Custom pedals

I bet a few of us has seen those custom foot pedals inside a pepboys, autozone, etc. I had a pair before but I had to use rubberbands to hold the gas on and screw the bunch thru the brake pedal. I seen the orange and chrome ones that would go well with the interior of my car but I don't want it to be tacky. So has anyone have experience putting these on, or does anyone have a video? Lemme kno guys thanks

I have a set on my '84 Camaro. I never got the gas pedal on due to issues I need to overcome (just have the brake and clutch pedals on, no one even notices the gas on missing, kinda funny).
I bought a set for my '94 Grand Am, never put them on, instead, I found them years later in my garage and they ended up being a better fit on my Monte. These installed per the instructions, no issues. The gas pedal has some double stick tape and a couple of hold down brackets.

I've learned either there are a couple companies doing these OR they change how they work over the years. I also notice that I think the brake pedal on some kits is WAY over sized. Something to watch out for (if it really is over sized, then it may off set the appearance AND get in the way of using the brake).

Here's a pic of my pedals:

I have no problem with how mine are attached. You just tighten the screws to these straps that hold them on. They don't shift or move at all. I've had them on for a couple years now.

I don't know how many different styles/brands are out there of these. If you can get them at a local store, grab them and test fit them. Go from there.
