Thanxs.

I originally though that all BMW pedals covers would be interchangable. However, I later found out that different BMW pedals come in different sizes. Some longer than others. So that's what I'm trying to confirm. If someone has seen measurements of them or had pedal covers on a E53 and then moved them over to a E70.

Does anyone know if the pedals in the X5 (E53) are the same as the X5 (E70)? I found some nice ACS replicas, but they were meant for the previous X5. The seller of course claims that they fit, but I'd like to confirm that from another source (since there was a negative feedback that the item another buyer got didn't fit their car as advertised).

Any help is appreciated.

I'm pretty sure they are different. I wanted the OEM aluminum pedals (I had them on my E53) but my buddy Joe in parts told me they wouldn't fit the E70

Looking the pic below, the ACS pedal covers are exactly the same as the ones on my E53. Laura why don't you test fit the old E53 alum. pedals on your new E70? Btw, killer shoes ;).

I left the OEM aluminum pedals on the E53 when I turned her in. Thank you, I like them too ;)

Thanxs. Still no definite confirmation on whether the pedals on the E53 and E70 are the same. BUT I did go on ACS and Hartge's website and found that the items numbers for the pedals for both cars are the exact same. I tried looking up other models to find a differing product number (thus different pedal size), but they all seem to be the same! (Which I initially assumed).

I'm curious though. I tried roughly measuring the pedal sizes with my tennis shoe when I went to the BMW Ultimate Drive event. THe X5 (E70)'s seemed to be shorter than the 535 wagon that I drove! I hope that method of measuring was just inaccurate. Otherwise, I can't understand why some pedals seem longer (while ACS/Hartge sell them with the same product number). :dunno:

I just installed the ACS Replicas and the footrest covers pretty much all of the underneath plastic part (see pic):
