I havent forgot everyone with this replacement.

I checked the tracking and they should arrive to me tomorrow.

I will test fit and respond back to the list for feedback.

After that point if everything is OK I will ship out to everyone.

The adapters came today.

The rubber is more pliable but the hole is to small to accept the throttle rod ball (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) .

I have contacted Mike again, I really hope to get this straightened out soon.

Sorry everyone...

Kelly,

Once resolved, will you be getting enough for everybody that originally purchased them or just the ones that piped up that they had a woody, errr, hard one? I haven't been following the thread and just caught up and will need one too, just need to know if I should go direct or not.

Thanks, and bummer about this whole situation.

Kelly,
Just PM me when you get the correct ones...I'm the guy that was unfortunate enough to buy the same pedals 2 weeks before the group buy, and am stuck w/ the hard part as well. Thanks!

I bought before the group buy as well. I broke my pedal first and I think I have the same replacement part. I did get it to fit by heating the plastic in hot water and cooling the rod. It seems like it will work. Maybe try this with the new ones. I have not installed it in the car yet so I do not know how well it will hold up. If an even better solution comes along please let me know.

I spoke with Mike and he is confident that his supplier will be able to fix this, he will talk with him tomorrow(too late today)

It looks like he might have to redesign them in order to work properly.

I am hoping for a quick turn around on this but I will get a better idea on times tomorrow

Hang in there all this will work out

No worries....

I do have to say that Mike is a stand up guy and has really bent over backwards trying to get this thing fixed right.

New news.

The second batch sent to me will be going back and he will be resending shrotly after.

We should be looking at turn around time of less than two weeks again, but this should be the last hold.

Will those who were not part of the deal who wanted the working mounts email me please so I can get a number for the extras I need.
