ACS Pedals

I installed my ACS foot pedals today. Got them for $70 (incl shipping) via eBay, compared with $170 at the dealer (and that dealer price didn't include installation!! )

What an easy, but good "bang for the buck" mod! I used the article posted here (thanks, JVZ104). I might add that the Allen wrench size was 2.5 mm, and the nuts are 6 mm. It would be best if you have a very small open end 6 mm wrench to hold those nuts in place while tightening the bolts, compared with the socket wrench I had, which had a hard time getting those last 2 bolts on the right side of the accelerator pedal.

This is not something I would have done without xoutpost.com!

Looks GREAT. This is a great mod for the X5. I think quite a few of us have this exact same set. JV's write up is excellent. I picked up the matching handbrake too, but it is not as heavy and solid as I would have liked. Still looks cool though.

Now you have some happy feet

Looking good. I have pretty much the same setup just as a custom Dinan set to round up the S2 package

Lookin' good! Glad someone got some use out of that article! You'll notice the difference on long trips (or when wringing the X out), and they just look better!
