Just received my Rev 5 pedal bracket today and beleive it or not it exceeded my expectations, which were high to begin with.

I was informed about this pedal bracket by a friend who is a master BMW mechanic and he is helping me bring back to life a 1986 BMW 535I and he suggested this would be a worth while investment. I checked it out on this site and it looked to be a very well designed solution for a under designed OEM bracket. I immediately sent Dave an email and the correspondence started. Within 24 hours of my first sight of this posting I had successfully had the part on order, even having to use a friends paypal account because I do not have one.

The bracket was shipped on Saturday and I received it today. Now here is where my expectations were surpassed.......usually when you order something off the internet and it's not from Apple it shows up in a crappy box, poor packing, no instructions and if there is any hardware it's from China and gets pitched in the garbage. When the box arrived from Dave it was just the right size and was well taped for security, it had more than ample packing material, parts were in a labeled baggie for protection and communication, the hardware is superb and for the final finally the instructions included pictures and the photo copy looked to be an original.....not a copy of a copy of a copy.....etc.

Now, the bracket was beautiful, but I could see that much from the photos contained in this site but still I love to see a custom designed steel bracket with Zinc Chromate plating......it is a masterpiece. I know it sounds as if I am a lunatic at this point but really just a design engineer who has seen the service levels and products in the USA diminish so much over the last decade that when I have a positive experience all the way around I feel the least I can do it spread the word about it to any one that will listen.

When the bracket is installed I will provide photos of the finished product.

The bottom line is Dave you have out done yourself with the product and service you are providing to the lucky e28 community.

I would pretty much buy any goods that I need from you for my car brother!

Good Luck!

Got the bracket today, looks beefy! Thanks, Dave!

I won't know how well it fits/performs until I get it into the car with the manual conversion. Glad I can install with the assembly out of the car - looks like a bitch of a job inside the car.

Dave, just sent you an email but you can disregard, I sent you PayPal!

Received mine today. Installed in 25 minutes. Haven't gotten to drive with it yet but it looks like an amazing product and I'm sure it'll cure my hard shifts.

I finally got around to installing the bracket that I ordered last fall... I must not be quite as sharp as the guys who installed theirs in a half-hour, because my install took a bit longer than that (more on that later.) I don't know if my bracket was cracked, but it sure felt like there was some flexing going on before. Now the clutch pedal feels better and is more consistent than before. Awesome quality product! I can't understand why the Germans didn't do something like this from the get-go.

In case it's of any help to anybody else, just a reminder to READ THE FLIPPIN' INSTRUCTIONS AND FOLLOW THEM!! I did read the instructions but probably not thoroughly enough. I saw that the instructions wisely talk about doing one clutch master cylinder bolt at a time so that it doesn't move while you're bolting up the plate, but didn't realize the importance of doing the lower bolt (closest to the firewall) first. I took the other one out first, then tried fitting the plate in place with the lower bolt sticking through the captive nut, and it wouldn't fit. So long story short, it ended up taking far longer than it should have if I had followed the instructions to the letter. Mr. Pepin knows what he's talking about; just follow the procedure that he sends with the plate, to the letter.

Thanks for a great product, Dave!

still available?
