Amazing. Extremely jealous of your abilities.

ClayW- I just had my welding positioner electronics next to my steering box rebuild. Nothing that special I promise. Just a regular rebuild.

Fresh- Thank you! 

Colin- I believe it has enough difference to not be considered a reproduction. After I started the design I found his thread and tried to find him selling them, but couldn't. Seems like he made a few and just stopped. To my understanding another member on the forum is selling ones similar to his also. It's hard to create much of difference in the design since it's just a replication of the OEM pedal made of aluminum with a bearing. If he objected to it I would have no problem talking to him and working it out. I'm not trying to step on any toes, just trying to make some stuff for 02 owners to enjoy that they can't get.

I wouldn't worry about it, unless you are planning on selling them. Making money from someone else's design = Stepping on toes. Making stuff for yourself from someone else's design? Not a big deal, in my opinion. Also, there's a how-to article on how do make pretty much exactly what you made on this site, so I can't imagine that anyone would complain about intellectual property theft.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
