Dont know if you mean an ebay special Mugen replicas or actual real mugen sports pedal set for the DC5 like what the traders sell, as in real mugen.Quote:

which is what i have (most likely fakes) well, you'll know by the price difference lol, there are alot of fake ones out there.
Yep those,
I'm no expert but how are you going to know that the ones you are buying are the real deal and seller isn't selling eBay replicas at an extremely high price just to make it seem convincing. The eBay Mugen pedals have everything to indicate that they are Mugen pedals people just know they are reps because they're like $30 but doesn't meant they don't do what they are supposed to...
I would rather pay $30 for reps know that they are reps rather than $300 for a set that might be reps sold at profit margin of x10
Ummm simple man buy it from authorised dealers like JDM concept. $250ish or so but you know their real.
But I can see your point with the reps although I would have to wonder what can go wrong with them or if the face would wear down quickly and lose the grip.
I think it is about $400 from Honda as Poeter got one from them.Quote:

I personally think everyone should get a Mugen pedal kit weather real or fake because they grip far better than any rubber ever would and go one better when the soles of your shoes are wet!Quote:

Just type in Mugen pedals in eBay, you'll get hundreds of hits, sort by price lowest first, all replica Mugen pedals are they same and should have Mugen engraved on the top of brake and clutch pedal.
People might say don't buy fakes but I really don't see the advantage of buying genuine pedals for $250 when the rep ones do exactly the same thing which is grip onto your shoes while you step on them and they look 99% if not 100% identical. And for $30 the Mugen reps are the best pedals $30 can buy far better than the rubbish you see at super cheap auto!
Installation is a breeze as is very secure!
Just call up and ask? Just say it's for a DC5R if they ask for part # ect.Quote:
