unlikely, but if failure occurs, we'll deal with it case by case. we stand by our customer service, we're not happy unless you're happy.

That's why I was scratching my head earlier, I knew SOMETHING didn't sound right with that post... Good catch.

Look forward to receiving the bracket! It may take me a month or so before I actually do the install as I'm quite busy w/work etc.

I ordered my bracket today. As long as everything else gets here on time I'm planning on doing the install this weekend. I'll try and snap a couple shots while the dash is off.

How long have you test this setup? I think the design is not strong enough. I think for daily driver this will break in less than a year. I really want hydraulic setup because I broke 4 bracket and 4 cable in 2 yrs. All from honda. I am planning to use wilwood floor pedal set up. But I don't know if there any space for the etu.

not too long. mine has been in for almost a year but i'm not daily driven. but mine was prototype and a lot thinner material was used and it's holding up fine. i was thinking of trying the wilwood but there's not enough room on my crx. this bracket will not break. the stock pedals might still break. this bracket will help reinforce the stock pedals and reduce some of the flexing issues with the stock pedal assembly to make them hopefully last longer than they have. the only way to fix the stock pedal assembly is to redesign it.

Mind you I'll get a lot of little things from the junkyard, but this is just a reference guide.

Put some part numbers together to make it easier.. with pricing.. figure more info would get more people interested. all prices are from myhondapartsstore.com Anything else that you can add to this list to make it a complete install would help out... minus welding or labor charges.

Yah guys this really does help. I appreciate it a lot. I won't go OEM on it all, but it's good for non hydro-clutch types to dive into this mod.
