Its funny, those are 4th gen pedals since GM installed Dead pedals in 4th gens. One of my pet peeves about 3rd gens....... 
i don't think pedals are worth 75 bucks though. I could use that on go faster mods.

They are way beyond "normal" pedal covers...You`d know it if you had a set I guess. They are the best on the market

ummm maybe i'm stupid or something but what separates a cheap pedal froma good pedal. Its not like slamming on the breaks if gonna break a pedal. But uh, to me for the looks that price is a very decent. I'd pay ti if i had that much money, but uh.... i dont at the moment. They do however go down on the list to be done to the car.

I got mine on ebay for 69.00, I wanted "z28" and a week later they showed..very nice product. The brake pedal logo is cnc machined into it and they machine the cover with the original curve of the brake pedal. I needed new covers anyway so this worked out pretty good for me.

those are the 3A racing seats, which after days of research and more research are made by the same company and are of the exact design as the Summit Racing Seats. So technically your looking at those summit seats, but your really looking at the 3A racing seats.
To answer your question it says, 3A Racing

After days of research i was able to find they were made form the same company and everything. Only difference is ones says summit, other says 3a racing on it.
You can get the identical ones, 3a on ebay for $100 cheaper

the company is www.autovation.net for those pedals. but unfortunately they are no longer allowed to produce GM pedals with any GM logo on them. had my set ordered with the pontiac triangle logo for several weeks only to be sent an email stating that they were no longer allowed to produce them and offered me a plain set as a replacement...no way!!..can ya say REFUND!!

Yeah I had put up the link to their site on one of kidrcth's other posts a long time ago. They even say it on the pictures he put up that they're from Autovation. I don't know why he sees it as a great find a lot of people have known about them. I too noticed that they took off all their GM stuff from their site not too long ago, sucks because I was looking into getting some. Oh well
kidrcth you didn't do days of research to find that those seats are the same as the 3A racing one someone told you in another post. You just seemed to refuse that they were. You may have confirmed it otherwise, but it was said to you a long time ago. but yeah stick with those seats instead of the TV ones.
