Interior Dressup questions

Hey guys:
coulpe things,

1) Does anyone use those aftermarket peddels, u know what I am talking about the ones that just about every parts store has. Do they look like crap like I think or what? they just slid on?

2) How in the Heck do u get the shifter *** off a 92 firebird stick. I cant seem to locate a set screw or somthing.

3) Does anyplace sell like a firebird ***, like a logo or somthing
thanks
craig

The roundshifter ball, u just twist off.. check the diameter of the
thread, universal is way exagerated.

The pedals some look good some dont that depends on your
jugement.

spectre, how in the heck do u get that thing to twist off, mine is gray and I wouldnt say its round, the top is but then it kinda forms into the stick if u know what I mean, its not just a ball siting ontop of the stick.

Im not real keen on the lightup ones, too ricie

im thinking just the carbon fiber type or something to that nature.

thakns for the help though guys

i had some red and carbon fiber pedels on my truck at one point, the carbon fiber wasnt real and was just painted on, after about 6 months they were almost completely white because all the paint wore off, they wre a waste of money and never really fit right, and where always loose, but i guess that is wht you get for $20 from pepboys

do you have a picture of your shift **** ? it shoudl just screw off...

I it an auto or manuel? It if is the T handle on an auto then there is a u clip that holds it in place in a ridge facing the radion and you need a small flat screwdriver to pry the clip out then it just slides right off.
