Metal pedals for W212

I checked pedals in W212 today and found they are rubber not metal even in E550 Sport.

It's a shame on W212 even C class Sport has metal pedals as standard.

Does metal pedals for W211(or W221) fit to W212?

My first mod for W212(after taking delivery) will be replacing rubber pedals to metal ones.

Anyone tried?

I honestly dont see the big deal in having metal pedals ? Its under your foot, you dont really see it.. The pedal is out the field of vision for any passengers. For me rubber or metal makes no difference. Just stomp it!

No, I was talking about genuine MB pedal part like this:

They fit to W221 and W211, but not sure they will fit to W212...

As no OEM metal footrest is available, I ordered custom made footrest from that site. That was for R171 SLK. I measured, designed, drew a plan, and sent to them. They made pretty good quality one based on the plan.

metal pedals

the E Coupe has metals pedals but sizing is different on the sedan - however an AMG E63 is in & has metal pedals which will fit the E sedan so dealer is getting a set to install for me .... so if you have a sedan there's your answer .... they are under your foot but .... they add a sporty flair ...

Do you know part numbers of the E63 pedals?

What is the advice on these pedals for someone like me whose shoes are slushy from snow/melting ice for what seems to be about 6 months of the year?

E63

Does anyone know if the E63 set has a dead pedal?

Thanks

Just found some pics of the E63. Looks like it has a dead pedal.

E63 Pedals

Dealer said there are part numbers for the brake and e-brake as they are just covers. The gas pedal is different. The parts guy could not find a part number for the dead pedal.. Looks like it may be a part of the carpet? The dealer is showing different part nos for the E63 and E550 for the carpet, although I wonder if that is because it goes up to the center console. I don't know if the foot print of the console is any different with the console shifter in the E63.

If someone does find a part number for the dead pedal on the E63, please post. Otherwise I think I will get one from Ultimate Pedals.
