Rather an odd one this, but how should the accelerator be fixed to the floor? Mines in a bit of a state, looks like its sickoflexed in place and with a pop rivet too..

I have a new pedal from mr baxter.. but should it be screwed, bolted, or pop riveted in place?

Thanks.

Mines self tapped.Easier to remove should you need to.

Thanks Rob. Didnt want to remove this knackered old thing before i know how the new one should be re-atached

I pop rivited a 40mm Steel hinge on mine as the bendy plastic broke.

Mines pop riveted most of the time - but has an annoying habit of breaking off about once a year (and when the lovely H is driving it). Its held on by a coathanger at the moment (gotta love her ingunuity) until i work out how im going to fix it permanently. I think its going to involve pop rivets then a mig welder

Ringo

rivoted with washers on top

factory just used large head rivots

My rivets broke. Slid two bolts downthrough from the top and captive nuts underneath. A bit fidly but secure now.
