Procedure

1
Inspect existing pedal pads
Examine the brake and clutch pedal pads for wear, cracks, or missing material. Note how the existing pads are mounted (clip-on style or press-fit) to determine removal method.
2
Remove brake pedal pad
Using a flathead screwdriver or trim tool, carefully pry the brake pedal pad away from the pedal arm. The pad is typically a stretch-fit rubber cover over the pedal arm. Pry or peel one edge of the pad off the arm and work it free around the perimeter, being careful not to damage the pedal arm finish.
3
Remove clutch pedal pad (manual transmission)
If equipped with manual transmission, repeat the removal process for the clutch pedal pad. Use the flathead screwdriver to release the retaining clips and pull the pad away from the pedal arm. Skip this step if vehicle has automatic transmission.
4
Clean pedal mounting surfaces
Wipe down the pedal arm surfaces with a clean cloth to remove any dirt, debris, or rubber residue from the old pads. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry for proper adhesion of new pads.
5
Install new brake pedal pad
Align the new brake pedal pad with the pedal arm, ensuring the retaining clips are positioned correctly. Press firmly on the pad starting at one end and working across to fully seat all clips. The pad should snap into place with an audible click. Verify the pad is secure by attempting to pull it off. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry so the new slip-on pad seats fully over the pedal arm.
6
Install new clutch pedal pad (manual transmission)
If equipped with manual transmission, install the new clutch pedal pad using the same method as the brake pedal. Align clips properly and press firmly until fully seated. Verify retention by pulling on the pad. Skip this step if vehicle has automatic transmission.

Reassembly

Return driver's seat to normal operating position
Test pedal pad security by pressing firmly with hand before operating vehicle

Verification

Sit in driver's seat and test both pedals for proper pad retention and grip
Verify pads do not slip or move when applying firm foot pressure
Ensure pedal pads are centered on pedal arms with no interference with floor mat or carpet
Test drive vehicle to confirm pedal feel is normal and pads remain secure during operation
