    Yes, clutch and brake for sure. I will send you a pic. The gas pedal I wanted to buy one used and see if I can just transfer the hinged pedal.

      They changed the design enough that I don't think it's a straight forward swap. Might be possible to make some sort of adapter that allows the screwed down pedals to fit in the cars that have the older style brackets.

      Electrically it should be fine.

      Edit: I do see from your other posts you have a Z4M -- The G80 pedals should be plug and play for you. It's those of us with older cars that'd have to get creative about the gas pedal

        the gas pedal I was hoping you can just transfer the pedal. See the photos below.

        the plate snaps to a ball joint, and the base of the hinge just slides off. The assembly shown is my Z4M OE pedal, but I think is interchangeable with E46 chassis!??? As long as the ball socket is in the same area it can be swapped with a Gx pedal.

          G8x pedal is different. For you it'll still be plug and play because the actual mount to the chassis is the same.

          On the E46 it's different since the chassis mount is different and the newest style pedal doesn't have the balljoint in the same place

          (this is the newest version of the standard pedal rather than the M one, but the mounting is the same)​


          The brake/clutch pedal might go reasonably okay with the prior gen stainless gas pedal (which is still available)

          I don't think it'd be impossible to 3d print a bracket such that a new style pedal can be mounted to the old style chassis, but I'd need to experiment to see​

            Thanks, I had missed the alattachment is different. But if you 3d print the socket and glue it to the pedal, you could still make it work.

              Thanks for posting the pics maupineda

              My issue Now is that if i want to left foot brake which i need to sometimes it hits my right foot due to the shoes.

              I am going to have to go back to the GP pedals setup unless I stop Left foot braking LOL. Remember my car is an SMG

                I bought the Dinan set as they seem closest to the performance one's.
