A while ago my little crayon looking piece broke off. So I put a bolt in it's place and it works fine. I come to find my car won't start.

Look down there. The bolt is gone.
The switch is missing!

I think I might be suffering from temporary blindness. Anyone have a pic of what this thing looks like?

Its just a little black piece. I did auto to manual swap, and it didnt come with that rubber/plastic piece, so i used a bolt and nut. No problems or issues.

I'm retarded. It's up further than i thiught it was I was looking at the cruise control switch

ferio-ichi3

Lol, well they both have that plastic rubber thing, i used a nut and bolt On both..and also the clutch switch, and cruise switch look the same. iirc, the clutch switch is slighter bigger than the cruise switch, do You need a pic of The 2 switches?

yeah when those rubber pads break they all break right after another and disintegrate, probably should replace the brake light one too, or you'll have the lights on all the time.

The brakes has a rubber piece also?

Yeah, I actually just checked and realized what I replaced was the brake light one. This clutch switch is going to be a bitch to get to.

Ur better off using a nut and a bolt...it will never come out if its tightened enough. Dont even stress man

Welp. No bolt that fits any nuts I have sadly. I jbwelded two pennies.

Getting the clutch level bolt out was a pita!! Mainly because of harnesses in the way that I couldn't figure out how to remove. Putting them back in was easy peasy. Works a treat now!

Yeah, I ended up giving up trying to get it in there, and had problems removing the pedal assembly and said screw it, and paid a shop to get that installed while I got my alignment. Hoping the rubber stoppers last another 12 years for me lol.

JBweld should hold up better than my tape and penny trick, it worked for 6mo, but every so often it would slide down a bit and I couldn't start my Integra.
