Okay, I need some advise.

Please post pics.

I am looking for blue pedals, actually satin silver or chrome type pedals with blue accents.

I do NOT want full blue pedals or Black pedals with blue accents. The blue or black will wear off.

I don't care if they are glowing pedals or not, but they need to be waterproof, my last set died quickly from water.

I know these are red, but they carry them in blue. There just isn't a picture of them in blue. They're electro luminescent whatever that means. I just think they look hella cool. I found them on cartoys.com

Doode, those DO look tight.

I'll have to check them out. Did they say they are waterproof?

I've found some momo's that I like too but they are EXPENSIVE!

Here's the link to those pedals: Ichiban Pedals

I'd be in if someone were to do a groupbuy on these. But I have never set one up before and don't really want to take the time to do it. There might be another place with these pedals that would be cheaper, but this is where I found them.

It doesn't say if they are waterproof or not. They're metal... I'm not sure if the actual pedal lights up or if it just illuminates if another light is on it. Doesn't really give that much info. I'll look into it some more though.

These pedals come in Red, blue, and yellow

I like the momo pedals.. especially the Grandprix... but this is also an area I think it is best to spend good money on.. after all, except for the steering wheel, there is NO other area of your car that you constantly touch. (well, maybe the seat counts too)

The funny thing is that they aren't listed on Ichibahn's site.

I'd like to get them if they are waterproof.

Thor, see what you can find out and get us a buy going. If I could at least find the name of these sucka's I'd be able to search for them better.

It sorta looks like a shark's fin. The colored part lights up.

I've tried looking all over. I can't find the name of them either. I'll keep looking and maybe e-mail cartoys. I'll get back to you all on what I can find out. Until then let's see some more pics of what other people think are good looking pedals.

I'm interested in finding a dealer nearby as I want some of the EL Pedals you make.

A few questions...

1. Are they waterproof?

2. Who is my local dealer? Albuquerque NM, 87109

3. How can I become a dealer? I am a partner of www.kspec.com and we are starting a US office and would like to be able to sell your goods.


Thanks for your time, I hope I can get some of them pedals ASAP.

Jeremy L. Zimmerman


This was returned...

I just had a thought.
Could you buy some nice cheap pedels and have them anodized blue? Don't know how expensive anodizing is, but just a thought out of left feild. smile.gif
