I'm taking the carpet out of my car to clean it and check for any water leaks but I'm stuck on the accelerator pedal how does it come out, I don't wanna try and force it and break it
Thanks in advance

There is a metal slot on the floor and the plastic tangs on the bottom of the pedal push onto it.

Unclip the top and pull up, you may need someone to press the tangs in so they don't break.
