Accelerator pedal removal on 2019 Z

Hot Rod 370 Z · 06-07-2019, 11:26 AM

Thinking of buying a Sprint booster. I read all the pros and cons but I am still interested. Can anyone out there tell me or show me how to remove the accelerator pedal. I do not see any visible screws, c clips etc. Dont want to break it trying to remove it the wrong way. Any help is appreciated. Again I own a 2019 370 Z

Here's a video for the Pedal Commander but it shows the 2 10mm bolts that need to be removed. There's a cover over the bolts, it takes a real fine tip screwdriver to pry the cover off.

As mentioned there is a cover over the bolts. I used a plastic panel tool to avoid damaging the plastic. There is also an electrical plug to disconnect. Took maybe 2 minutes total.

I have one and love it. There umis a small black rectangle near the base of the pedal. You need to pull that off to show the screws. Use a knife point.

I just did the install on my Z, this video helped even thou is for a different booster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQsH__7oa7I . I used a box cutter blade to separate the cover from the base and used a sharp edge screwdriver once I had space for it to fit and after a few tries it came off. The connectors are a little tricky since there is very little room to work under the dash
